Will Wheeler Get the FCC Back on Track?
America needs an FCC that is willing and able to address the rapidly changing environment of telecommunications and IP communications can Thomas Wheeler make that happen?

How will Julius Genachowski’s retirement affect the direction of the FCC?
While changes do need to occur, discussing new taxes on broadband during a presidential election is a nonstarter.
It’s disappointing to see that Mitt Romney doesn’t address the topic of broadband on his official website. This is too important for the major candidates to address it as an afterthought.
Interest in SIP trunks, SIP trunking and unified communications fell in 2011, while sales rose. The same held true for video conferencing, which was more surprising given the renewed interest in the technology.
The FCC has voted to modernize the multibillion-dollar fund that subsidizes telecommunications services and reform the convoluted and inequitable system by which telephone companies pay one another to connect calls.
There will be no USF or ICC reforms for several years, but if not correctly devised, the impact on the Internet and IP-related services and applications will be devastating.
For the first time in months it would seem the Democrats and Republicans on the FCC concur about the importance of something. It seems that the floundering over whether to modernize the USF and ICC system is over.
The FCC has proposed sweeping initiatives to reform the Universal Service Fund and intercarrier compensation as part of a plan to promote affordable broadband service across the nation through a Connect America Fund.
The FCC voted to reform the Universal Service Fund and potentially eliminate the InterCarrier Compensation (ICC) system this week and there were no screams of protest.
