  • Funding for the Telecommunications Relay
    COMMONWEALTH OF KENTUCKY BEFORE THE PUBLIC SERVICE COMMISSION In the Matter of: FUNDING FOR THE TELECOMMUNICATIONS ) CASE NO. RELAY SERVICE ) 2017 -00358 ORDER On September 14, 2017, the Commission issued an Order in this proceeding requiring that the Telecommunications Relay Service ("TRS") fund surcharge be reduced by one cent ($0.01) to one cent ($0.01) per month effective January 1, 2018. In addition, the Commission established a deadline to receive comments regarding a frequency schedule for the Commission to review the TRS fund and related surcharge in the future. The Commission received no comments. The Commission finds that it will conduct a formal review of the TRS fund and the surcharge on an annual basis. Annual reviews of the TRS fund should reduce the potential for large balance shortfalls and overages. Annual reviews will commence approximately 120 days from the end of the calendar year, with the goal of implementing any changes on the first day of the following calendar year. The goal would also be to issue an order within 60 days of the initiation of the annual review so that providers will have ample time to implement any changes, if ordered. These annual formal reviews would be in addition to ongoing monitoring and would not prevent the Commission from making any changes in the interim period. IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that: 1. The Commission annually will conduct a fo rmal review of the TRS fund to determine if a change in the surcharge is warranted. 2. This case is closed and removed from the Commission's docket.

Wood Consumer Federation of America Parul P. Desai Counsel for Consumers Union Joel Kelsey Consumers Union Chris Riley Counsel for Free Press Ben Scott Chris Riley Free Press Matthew F. Wood Parul P. Desai Media Access Project Michael Calabrese Sascha Meinrath New America Foundation Gigi Sohn Harold Feld Public Knowledge September 30, 2009 SUMMARY The mobile wireless marketplace is not effectively competitive. Public interest groups Consumer Federation of America, Consumers Union, Free Press, Media Access Project, New America Foundation, and Public Knowledge (together, the “Public Interest Commenters”), demonstrated the lack of effective competition in that marketplace earlier this year when the Commission sought comment for the preparation of its annual CMRS report. The Commission now seeks to expand the scope of its review to account for the dynamic operation of the entire mobile wireless ecosystem. The Public Interest Commenters welcome this broadening of the Commission’s evaluation processes to include new data, new methodologies, and new frameworks for assessing both mobile service offerings themselves and the workings of upstream and downstream markets in the mobile value chain. Proper application of the traditional framework for assessing competition in the mobile wireless space shows a lack of real competition in that market.

Legacy technologies are still deployed and the market. Among them, incotrovertibly, LTE (Long Term Evolution) has been playing a key role in the adoption of 4G (fourth Generation) since it was commercially launched in early 2010. In a matter of a few years, LTE has been successfully deployed around the world driving the entire wireless ecosystem to connect over 1 in 4 mobile users worldwide, a trend that is continuing to grow tremendously [1]. Many Mobile Network Operators (MNO) have heavily invested in the LTE network rollouts across the world for the transition from the 2G/3G (second/third Generation) to 4G. This deployment has been an instrumental step to enhance the Mobile Broadband (MBB) proposition and improved coverage, as well as for offering more attractively priced data tariffs, greater availability and affordability of higher speed devices. The generational shift that is gaining momentum on the wave of the continuous enhancements and new features that the standard introduces has made LTE the fastest developing mobile technology ever.

  • 1 March 7, 2016 Tom Wheeler Chairman Federal Communications
    March 7, 2016 Tom Wheeler Chairman Federal Communications Commission 445 12th St., SW Washington, D.C. 20554 Re: Broadband Privacy Rulemaking Dear Chairman Wheeler: On March 1, 2016, five large trade associations for broadband Internet service providers (“ISPs”) proposed a framework for the Federal Communication Commission’s (“FCC”) forthcoming rulemaking on broadband privacy.1 While it is encouraging that ISPs now appear willing to engage on this issue and to recognize the importance of FCC data security and data breach regulations, the proposed framework fails to provide consumers with the robust protections needed in light of ongoing ISP information collection practices. We therefore submit this letter reviewing the collection practices of ISPs across multiple platforms (including their video offerings), and urging the FCC to adopt rules that will provide meaningful protections for broadband consumers. ISPs currently play a leading role in the complex ecosystem of online behavioral advertising and related forms of data-driven, targeted marketing. These companies are showing an increased interest in monetizing the data they collect about their customers, and they are leveraging their position as gatekeepers to the Internet to harness this data in powerful and invasive ways. Verizon, for example, has in place powerful data-driven tracking and targeting infrastructure for multiple platforms and devices, including mobile phones. Verizon’s acquisition of both AOL and Millennial Media in 2015, as well as its advertising partnership with Microsoft, provide the company with extraordinary capabilities for data gathering, analysis, and monetization of subscriber information.2 1 Letter of American Cable Association, Competitive Carrier Association, CTIA, NCTA and USTelecom to Tom Wheeler, Chairman, Federal Communications Commission (Mar.
