There is a certain amount of public data available from the 477 data. One piece of data they do have is a list of all the people who actually filed. Beyond that they don't have much information other than the aggregated reports filed by the FCC. This woman is clearly thinking she has a lot more authority than she does. You do not have to comply with anything, although it would not be in your best interest (my opinion obviously). I would call her back and ask to speak to her supervisor and/or ask for the contact information for the master contract holder for your state mapping initiative. I would then play that message and/r tell them the tactics this woman is employing. I highly doubt the state wants her pissing the carriers off like this. She's just trying to get a lot of data together because each state is required to have a significant data contribution to the NTIA by March 31st.
Thank You, Brian Webster -----Original Message----- From: wireless-boun...@wispa.org [mailto:wireless-boun...@wispa.org]on Behalf Of Jason Wallace Sent: Tuesday, March 02, 2010 12:47 PM To: WISPA General List Subject: [WISPA] Data Site Consortium Threats? Does anyone know anything about a company named Data Site Consortium? Someone named Debra Dupée is calling and asking for information about my company that has to do with the "Federal Broadband Mapping Program" She said she got my information from FCC Form 477! And is working with all ISPs in Arizona. 1. Doesn't this mean that the FCC broke it's word about the non-disclosure part of 477, since Data Site Consortium is a privately owned company? 2. Do I have to reply to their demands? Worst of all, I got a message on my cell yesterday that said (and I quote): "We will escalate this up to the State Level and then to the Federal level if we don't hear from you." The email addresses she provides aren't even branded: azbroadb...@gmail.com ddu...@cox.net Is she legit? Anyone? Shouldn't they have to provide proof of who they are or a warrant or something before I have to provide info?
