Broadband & Digital Equity
Work towards a future where every resident and business has access to affordable broadband internet, and the skills and equipment to make use of it. We support a variety of digital equity and public access initiatives, and work to provide both regulatory oversight for our cable TV providers and to lower the barriers to entry in Boston’s broadband market.
