FCC's Triennial Review Released

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the navel-gazing-for-meddlers dept.

rednaxela writes "The FCC, after six months of deliberation, released the Triennial Review order on the evening of August 21. The Order makes substantial changes to the rules governing the obligations of the regional bell operating companies (i.e., SBC, BellSouth, Verizon and Qwest) to lease their networks to the competitive local exchange carriers (e.g., MCI, AT&T) for the provision of local phone service and, perhaps more interestingly to this audience, broadband. Brief summary here, link to the order and the FCC Commissioners' statements at www.fcc.gov."

    Is it just me, or does "Triennial Review Order" sound like some sort of secret society?

    Or the Federal Interstate network?

    Yes, I've heard of that... Precursor to the internet, incredible bandwidth but insane latency, right?
