HubbleIQ's comprehensive speed tests revealed that over 75% of tested connections in Oakland fall short of serving standards. This data underscores the urgent need for equitable internet access, and plays a notable role in new Bill AB2239, which recognizes and confronts digital discrimination.
[Sacramento, April 10th] HubbleIQ's collaboration with Oakland Undivided is making new waves in the fight against digital discrimination. This afternoon in Sacramento, the Assembly Communications & Conveyance Committee will be reviewing AB 2239, a new bill in California, aims to confront digital discrimination head-on by codifying FCC's updated definition into state law, which would make it the first state to do so.
HubbleIQ's findings provide critical evidence supporting this legislation. Our comprehensive speed tests revealed that over 75% of tested connections in Oakland fall short of serving standards. This data provides essential evidence supporting the urgent need for equitable internet access, particularly for marginalized communities. Every Californian deserves fast, reliable, and affordable internet—regardless of race or income.
The insights gleaned from HubbleIQ's collaboration with Oakland Undivided underscore the undeniable link between internet access and social justice. By amplifying these voices and advocating for change, HubbleIQ is driving meaningful progress towards a more equitable digital future.
