Craig Mundie, Microsoft's Chief Research and Strategy Officer, is not happy with the state of broadband in the U.S., and he thinks crummy government policy is to blame.
The Microsoft veteran, in an interview with the Washington Post, complained that he pays twice as much for broadband as he would in Tokyo for service that isn't nearly as fast, and he thinks that's largely because of a "total policy failure for more than the last decade."
And more ominously, he thinks the situation is "getting worse faster than most people perceive."
