CDC Report and Pew Center Demonstrates the Impact of Change CDC Report and Pew Center Demonstrates the Impact of Change
Preliminary results from the July-December 2007 National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) indicate that nearly one out of every six American homes (15.8%) had only wireless telephones during the second half of 2007. In addition, more than one out of every eight American homes (13.1%) received all or almost all calls on wireless telephones despite having a landline telephone in the home.
This does not mean that all Americans who use wireless increasingly for voice calls have cut all landline connections. Recent data from the Pew Trust suggests that broadband penetration continues to grow. In fact in some segments of the population – African Americans – broadband connectivity has expanded dramatically. Landline broadband networks offer real value to consumers.
The CDC numbers show cord cutting is not limited to “young singles,” or even “yuppies” as many often assume. One table in the CDC report shows that 15.5 percent of 30-44 year olds, 13 percent of families with children, and a whopping 27 percent of poor people have cut the cord. Even 7.3 percent of homeowners have done so, and that figure has doubled in the last two years.

Verizon’s Broadband DeploymentVerizon’s Broadband Deployment
No company has committed more resources to network upgrades – more than $63B in since 2004
FTTP – Undertaking a very ambitious roll-out of passive fiber optic cable to customer’s homes and businesses
DSL – Continuing to extend the reach of DSL— Nearly 80% of our lines are DSL-capable; 90% plus in urban
areas
EV-DO (wireless broadband) – Reaches 228 million people today
Other technologies – exploring innovative and cost-effective ways to bring broadband to more customers
— Partnerships with non-profits such as One Economy to bring broadband to low income customers living in subsidized housing
— New highly-flexible fiber from Corning allows tighter bends for MDU installations

How is the U. S. Doing?How is the U. S. Doing?
The World Economic Forum ranks the U.S. 4th in “networked readiness,” which measures ICT development, taking into account the environment and individual and corporate usage and readiness. Denmark is 1st, Japan is 19th.
The Fiber to the Home Council estimates that North America has 2.91M fiber connections and has been growing annually at a rate of 97 percent. The number of FTTH connections continues to almost double annually in the U. S. This compares to just 1M subscribers in all of Europe. Japan has far more subscribers but has been deploying fiber for far longer than any other country.
More than 12 million homes in the U. S. and Canada are passed by fiber networks compared to only five million in Europe. Nevertheless, as IDATE, a major European analyst firm put it “fiber to the home is still concentrated in only a few countries as Europe remains far behind leaders such as Japan and the US (emphasis added)”.
Verizon has more than 70% of the North American fiber connections and accounts for almost 10 million homes passed in the U. S.

Verizon Supports PrinciplesVerizon Supports Principles
Verizon endorsed the High Tech Broadband Coalition’s “Connectivity Principles” more than two years ago: All participants in the broadband value chain should
embrace a set of connectivity principles which ensure that consumers can
access any content on the internet run any application they choose attach any devices to their broadband connection that do not
harm the network get information regarding their service capabilities
In February 2004 former FCC Chair Michael Powell spoke about what he termed “Four Freedoms,” which mirror the HTBBC principles.
In September 2005 the FCC adopted FCC Chair Kevin Martin’s restatement of the HTBBC principles.

But there Have Been Problems – What Should be Done?But there Have Been Problems – What Should be Done?
Information can act as “sunlight” on industry actions so transparency principles around network management are worth considering What consumers can expect with regard to how their
connection will work and what services it normally should be able to run
What information should be provided about traffic management practices by the broadband providers/ISPs
What information should applications providers make available to the public and network providers
Industry should work together to help make applications work better – the “P4P Task Force” model

The Internet, Markets, CooperationThe Internet, Markets, Cooperation
If an internet company acts inappropriately today:— The FTC has asserted jurisdiction over anticompetitive behavior
and consumer protection— The FCC has claimed authority to oversee and enforce its
principals
Competition and choice is driving market – remember line loss
The Internet is not a closed system – many experts and geeks watching
Problems won’t be kept “hiding” long
The Internet has long been – and remains – a network of networks with a competitive/cooperative/adaptive model
Industry and consumers have adapted continuously— FTP Download crisis – 1980s; “World Wide Wait” – 1990s
Transparency principles should be considered
