I don't have any inside info on that, but the purpose of USF is to subsidize service in high cost areas (usually rural). So either there are more services needing subsidies or fewer services paying in or some combination of both.

Subject: [VoiceOps] USF is 33.4% for 2Q2021

Um. Wow. This is crazy. Why is it 33.4%???

2 years ago it was 18.8%. This is DOUBLE!

Will it stop increasing? Go back down? Are we doomed?
