Some good rhetoric here: https://x.com/BrendanCarrFCC
I have been boggling at some of the hurdles required to get this funding. I
gave up on BEAD last year, as the goalposts seem to be forever receding and
mounted on unicorns dancing on cotton candy clouds. I know there is more
progress being made than meets the eye, but to me it's in spite of BEAD,
rather than because of it. ("in spite" meaning - you are going to subsidize
WHAT??)
My pithy comment about the "fiber party".
Bead has provided employment to a lot of telephone polishers, political
hacks, and paper pushers. I tried to point out that many of the goals could
be achieved by better software on wireless networks; the fiber party took
it over. And oh! Did they party!

And for the records, I actually rather liked the ACP program. And LibreQos
passed 154 ISPs deploying it yesterday.
