Most Unwired Cities?
It would be nice if there were a little more background into the methodology of this report, but an Intel-backed study now says that the S.F. Bay Area is the "most unwired" metropolitan area in the US. It appears (though, the article never makes it clear) that they're only talking about WiFi connections. Of course, the label "unwired" is also a terrible one to use, because it could just as easily apply to cities that aren't connected at all...
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
