[Air-L] 10am TODAY -: CATCHUP WEBCAST – Digital Equity Planning: Past, Present, and Future – Jan 23

[Joly MacFie]

This ISOC-DC webcast will go out at 10:00 EST (15:00 UTC) today Friday, but
video/audio/transcript is already available in the archive. The webinar
itself was on Tuesday, and, as might be imagined, included discussion of
how the imminent wind down of the FCC's Affordable Connectivity Program
<https://otter.ai/u/uTJs0ECxBsOzl43DiB5yV1U2meE> (ACP) will affect state's
digital quity efforts. The ACP wind down itself appears to be forging a
movement the like we haven't seen since FOSTA/SEPTA days, judging by
yesterday's (Thursday)  DON'T DISCONNECT US DAY
