  • Remarks of Commissioner Meredith Attwell Baker the Proven Way: A
    Remarks of Commissioner Meredith Attwell Baker The Proven Way: A Regulatory Approach to Promote the Public Interest by Creating Jobs, Fostering Investment, and Driving Broadband Opportunity Broadband Policy Summit VI June 10, 2010 My approach to broadband regulation begins with the core principle that we must take the statute seriously and always respect our limited role of implementing Congress’s direction. We must recognize the basic teachings of economics and financial markets, the core tenants of engineering, the time-tested proposition that competitive markets protect consumers better than prescriptive government regulation, and some plain old common sense: if it isn’t broken, don’t fix it. And, our Title I regime for broadband is certainly not broken. The Internet Has Flourished Under the Commission’s Current Regulatory Framework. Over a decade ago, the Commission established a bipartisan approach that the Internet should be lightly regulated under Title I.1 Time has shown this to be one of the best decisions the Commission has ever made for consumers. In direct reliance on a consistent regulatory approach, wired and wireless network providers pumped $60 billion into their networks last year alone.2 Billions more have gone into applications and devices that ride on those networks. By every metric, broadband is a remarkable success: more universally available, faster, and cheaper. My travels as a Commissioner have also reinforced that the Internet is still a very new and evolving technology, and that former Commissioner Abernathy’s call for “Government Humility” is particularly true when confronting this dynamic industry.3 In Cambridge, I learned about Akamai, which carries up to 20 percent of the world’s Internet traffic with 70,000 servers around the globe.

  • Draft Copy of Ctia President and Ceo Meredith Attwell
    DRAFT COPY OF CTIA PRESIDENT AND CEO MEREDITH ATTWELL BAKER KEYNOTE REMARKS DAY 2 AT SUPER MOBILITY WEEK ON CONNECTED CAR AND NET NEUTRALITY **As prepared, not necessarily as delivered** A few weeks ago, I was lucky enough to visit AT&T’s Drive Studio in Atlanta. They are helping lead the world by closely integrating technology with the driving experience. First, and foremost, it will make us safer. It will also unlock a lot of amazing new innovative features. All of this is part of differentiation, which is at the core of the mobile experience today. As competitors fight to be first and experiment with this amazing LTE platform, consumers are the clear beneficiaries. This dynamic market is the backdrop for the FCC’s consideration of new Net Neutrality rules. No issue or policy is more important right now to our industry’s future than Net Neutrality. To be clear, CTIA and its members support an Open Internet. It is non-negotiable. Mobile providers fully embrace Internet openness and consumers demand it. Since its inception, the mobile Internet has been open. And since 2010, we have had Open Internet rules especially designed for mobile reflecting our technology our competitive dynamic and our evolving nature. Consumers have benefited with four amazing years of continuing innovation and investment. We’ve witnessed the remarkable consumer adoption of LTE and 4G solutions. The rise of tablets, wearables, and the Internet of Things. Venture capital pouring billions into new mobile solutions. And, since 2010, U.S. smartphone speeds have increased 8 times over. On today’s mobile Internet, there are only fast lanes.

    October 09, 2020 The Honorable Donald J. Trump President of the United States 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW WashinGton, D.C. 20500 Dear Mr. President: We write today to urGe your administration to oppose any effort to nationalize our country’s GrowinG 5G network infrastructure throuGh Federal entry into the commercial market as currently contemplated by the Department of Defense. Such an action would be at odds with more than a century of private sector led innovation and investment in communications networks, have a chillinG effect on the entire broadband sector, and jeopardize American leadership in the Global diGital economy. Whether it is access to spectrum, fiber backhaul infrastructure, antennas and radios, or any other elements necessary to power resilient, secure and fast 5G networks – we will always be better off with private innovation and competition. That is the American way and why the United States is the undisputed Global leader in communications. Collectively, broadband providers, includinG those represented by the undersiGned orGanizations, have invested trillions in private capital to build resilient, competitive and efficient networks that power our innovation economy and ensure millions of Americans benefit from broadband connectivity. The diversity of technoloGies and providers that make up our networks – fixed, wired, and wireless – provides unique services while promotinG sustainable and secure connections. The results of smart policies incentivizinG market competition and private investment for American consumers and Government agencies is clear: our networks continue to outperform foreiGn networks throuGhout the COVID pandemic.
