The FCC has approved the merger of broadband providers CenturyLink and Qwest, subject to various conditions including major broadband adoption and deployment programs.
Among the promises are low-cost broadband for low-income homes, digital literacy and training, boosting network capacity to actual - rather than advertised - speeds of 4 mbps to at least 4 million homes and 20,000 anchor institutions. The company also agreed to forego some Universal Service funds designed for smaller companies.
