Description
I. INTRODUCTION Ten years is not long in the span of human history, which is now estimated to be anywhere from 40,000 to 100,000 years old or more. It is not even long in the history of human communications or even in the history of electronic communications. Telephony is well over 100 years old and last century's so-called "new" services such as wireless, cable, and satellite services have already been around for far more than a single decade. Yet, in reflecting upon the ten years that have elapsed since the passage of the Telecommunications Act of 19961 ("1996 Act"), it seems almost an eternity. Whether we knew it or not (and, no question, technological change as well as the rapid growth of the Internet were contemplated in 1996), the fact remains that the communications world that we are confronted with in 2006 looks vastly different than what was contemplated in the 1996 legislation.
