    I’m encouraged by the national spectrum policy goals described in this symposium. I’m looking forward to learning more about the ongoing progress toward the stated objectives – specifically unlicensed spectrum. We need more policymakers informed about our essential participation in the Global Networked Economy.

  WEBCAST JAN 11 – A11yNYC – Broke with Accessible Taste: Understanding the Economics of Digital Access in US 

  On Tuesday January 11 2022 at 7pm-8pm EST (00:00-01:00 UTC Jan12) the Accessibility NYC Meetup (A11yNYC) hosts an online meetup ‘Broke with Accessible Taste: Understanding the Economics of Digital Access in US‘.

  Conversations about digital accessibility are predominantly centered on the technical and monetary expenses of implementation in products and applications. Missing from these conversations are socioeconomic factors faced by people with disabilities that can be significant blockers to digital access more than any design or technical inaccessibility.

  Crystal Preston Watson will dive into learning about the economic realities of disability in America and the repercussions of overlooking those realities in digital access.

  The meetup will be webcast live via a partnership with the Internet Society New York Accessibility SIG

  WEBCAST 3/24: @SHLBCoalition Webinar ANCHORING STATE BROADBAND EFFORTS @pewresearch @anealgraves @OITColorado @crystaliveyTN @TNECD #PewBroadband #switchiton 

  On Tuesday March 24 2020 at 1pm EDT (17:00 UTC) the Internet Society Livestream Channel will webcast a SHLB Coalition webinar ‘Anchoring State Broadband Efforts‘. A new report from the Broadband Research Initiative at Pew Charitable Trusts explores nine states exemplifying “promising practices” in their broadband programs. Community anchor institutions (CAIs) are essential partners in closing the digital divide, on both a state and local level. ‘Anchoring State Broadband Efforts’ will zero in on three case studies highlighted in Pew’s report that demonstrate the various roles CAIs play in shaping and executing state broadband initiatives. Speakers include: Crystal Ivey, Broadband Director, Tennessee Department of Economic and Community Development; Anthony Neal-Graves, Executive Director, Colorado Broadband Office, and Chief Operations Officer, Colorado Governor’s Office of Information Technology; and Eileen Harris, development director, human-I-T. Moderator: Anna Read, Officer, Broadband Research Initiative, Pew Charitable Trusts.

  Pew: 48.4% of U.S. adults access #Internet via cell phones #broadband 

  A new Pew survey Cell Internet Use 2012 finds that Americans are increasingly using cell phones to access the Internet.

  Some 88% of U.S. adults own a cell phone of some kind as of April 2012, and more than half of these cell owners (55%) use their phone to go online. We call these individuals “cell internet users” throughout this report, and this represents a notable increase from the 31% of cell owners who said that they used their phone to go online as recently as April 2009.

  Moreover, 31% of these current cell internet users say that they mostly go online using their cell phone, and not using some other device such as a desktop or laptop computer. That works out to 17% of all adult cell owners who are “cell-mostly internet users”—that is, who use their phone for most of their online browsing.

  

  The survey reinforces the idea of a “new digital divide”:

  Young adults and non-whites are especially likely to use their cell phones for the majority of their online activity:

  Nearly half of all 18-29 year olds (45%) who use the internet on their cell phones do most of their online browsing on their mobile device.
  Half (51%) of African-American cell internet users do most of their online browsing on their phone, double the proportion for whites (24%). Two in five Latino cell internet users (42%) also fall into the “cell-mostly” category.

  Additionally, those with an annual household income of less than $50,000 per year and those who have not graduated college are more likely than those with higher levels of income and education to use their phones for most of their online browsing.
