How This Helps You

Parents and Teachers:

M2Z is a boon to parents and teachers. Too many families cannot afford broadband, and children in these families are falling behind. Without access to broadband, children won't be able to access the educational Web sites that will make them competitive with other kids here and abroad. M2Z's free broadband service helps by taking the most expensive part of broadband—the monthly recurring charges—out of the equation. These family savings of $300-$700 a year from using the M2Z broadband service can be used to enrich other aspects of children's lives including the purchase of books, computers and educational activities.

Not only will M2Z's free broadband service enrich these children's lives, it will also do so responsibly. M2Z is committed to making its free nationwide broadband service safe by filtering out pornography and other objectionable material at the network level. This means that parents and teachers can have the peace of mind to get their kids connected without worrying about the kids getting to indecent and other inappropriate material on the Internet because that material will never reach the child's PC. Network level filtering is a revolutionary approach to online safety that frees parents and teachers from both the worry associated with Internet content and the time it requires to filter it out at home. Network providers can help make the Internet a safe place for kids. Parents and teachers should expect this level of service from their broadband providers.

Municipal Governments:

Cities and counties compete with each other for jobs, investment and residents the same way companies compete for contracts, capital and the best employees. In today's economy, Internet connectivity is one of the most important and tangible ways that municipalities can compete with each other. The availability of fast, reliable broadband Internet services in a community is a key ingredient to making a city competitive. Access to broadband allows for citizens to telecommute, for community services to go online, for schools and libraries to offer more substantive services and improve quality and for emergency responders to be more affective. Unfortunately, the current network providers, like the phone and cable companies, are not willing to help municipal governments improve the quality and accessibility of the Internet services available to their citizens. This has forced many cities to try to build their own costly municipal wireless networks. These are your tax dollars being spent on building networks because other carriers refuse to meet the demands of the consumers. M2Z will save your tax dollars by using private capital to build these networks in these municipalities but do it in a way that allows everyone to have easy access!

Low Income Americans:

It is no secret that access to technology, at home and at all levels of education, is absolutely linked to the level of success that ours students attain at school and in their careers. For low income Americans, the access to technology and high quality educational resources can mean the difference between a successful futures and remaining caught in the cycle of poverty. Again, the current network providers choose to ignore the needs of the American people as they seek only to maximize corporate profits. M2Z has pledged to make available a free service, which will help assure that low income Americans can utilize all of the tools and services that make the Internet such a powerful educational and economic tool. Bridging the ‘digital divide,' the M2Z free service will give many low-income Americans access to a new world of resources. With these new resources will come new opportunities. The opportunity to reach above a failing public school system by accessing better resources, more specialized teachers and bigger ideas. All Americans will have a better opportunity to live the dream of a college education. Everyone in America will get the opportunity to set more ambitious goals and to meet them.

Small and Independent Businesses:

One of the greatest opportunities small and independent businesses have to achieve their entrepreneurial goals is harnessing the power of the Internet. While small and independent businesses account for 99% of all American businesses, only 57% use the Internet for business related activities. Even fewer have high-speed connectivity, and only 35% have company Web sites. One of the major roadblocks between small business entrepreneurs and e-commerce is price. The entrepreneurs must make difficult monthly choices regarding where to focus their resources. M2Z's plan will eliminate the need to make that choice by providing a national wireless broadband data network that will allow small business entrepreneurs to use the service for free anywhere their business ventures take them, be it at their home office or across the country.

First Responders:

In the post-911 reality the communications challenges facing Public Safety agencies in America have been highlighted. M2Z believes that the broadband network providers have an obligation to help Public Safety meet these challenges by building a system-of-systems that is capable of providing a range of interoperable services. M2Z has pledged to make access to our data network available to every Public Safety Officer in American free of charge and with priority service in crisis situations. This will provide an additional layer of redundancy in the national communications system that will be extremely valuable to first responders. Reliable Public Safety communications saves lives everyday and especially in crisis scenarios. M2Z's proposed data network will bolster existing and planned public safety-operated networks and help law enforcement stay operational everyday and when disaster strikes.
