So the verdict is in and open-access is sort of the phrase that pays. Whomever wins the 22 MHz of the soon to be auctioned off broadcast spectrum will not only have to allow users to connect with any device or software, but will not be able to slow down the connection speed of competitors. A 10 MHz chunk will also be sold to a non-profit for emergency broadcast usage. In fact it basically seems that other than the wholesale-type commercial leases to third-party providers, Google basically got what they wanted. There is a little grandfathering though, but whatever. All and all, Chairman K-Mart and the Effin' Cool Club did right by America.
rock.
