Happy Anniversary to... Us! Vantage Point was founded 18 years ago today. THANK YOU to the employees, clients, friends, and family that have been part of our story for nearly two decades. Without you, we wouldn't be here.

Nice to see Vantage Point Solutions Larry Thompson on TV at the @IndieShow2020. His advice; continue to position fiber deeper into the network, eliminate actives in the outside plant, prepare for 10 gig and beyond. Order fiber now as there's great demand.

Broadband is about making sure South Dakotans have the tools they need to succeed in the 21st Century. At my urging, the legislature fully funded broadband expansion this year. We're investing $100 million to get it to every corner of our great state.

The president's action crosses the line. I believe in the vaccine, but I also believe in a limited federal government. Effectively, this is a national vaccine mandate. Our federal government has never done this before, and it should not do so now.

From our team to yours: Merry Christmas.

Garbage in, garbage out. Until the standards for reporting are fixed, the national broadband map will be a sports car running on a lawnmower engine - so much promise, but just being held back by something . . . fiercetelecom.com/broadband/mich…
