Should You Sign Google’s ‘White Space’ Petition?
Google announced this morning a new Web site called FreetheAirWaves.com, which promotes use of what Google calls “TV white space” — unused frequencies in the range traditionally designated for TV channels. Google wants to transform this range from licensed, like TV (where networks are granted exclusivity to a specific channel) to unlicensed, like Wi-Fi where anyone can use it. Google executives call it “WI-FI ON STEROIDS.”
