2015 starts with a full slate of challenging regulatory and policy issues for federal and state regulators and legislators…and very likely, legal battles as well.

•   Net neutrality, and the likelihood of reclassification of the internet, has the industry – and the public -on edge as they wait for the FCC’s ruling in late February.
•   Close behind is the network technology transition from TDM to IP, and with it a host of thorny questions on IP to IP interconnection, copper retirement, service discontinuance and functionally equivalent service replacement
•   The on-going, seemingly endless, FCC investigation into ILEC special access prices has several checkpoints in 2015 that may signal some action by the FCC
•   And each of these contentious issues carry the very real possibility of extended legal challenges…and a continuing cloud of uncertainty for service providers and enterprise end users alike.
