  2. This is a great resource. One question: is there any record of who the speakers are? It would be great to be able to cite them (or at least their companies and titles), but they are anonymous in the video.

  3. The speakers are from a variety of large and medium-sized telcos and cablecos that operate in California. The goal is not to blame the providers for not engaging in rural broadband, but to provide a reality check for the rest of us. Until ROI becomes competitive, they will never invest.
