Their collective goal is to ensure deregulated competition in services and platforms now, while crafting language that can anticipate future technologies and services. The project, called The Digital Age Communications Act (DACA), was launched at a press conference today and comes as Congress is considering an overhaul of communications law. PFF has a pro-business philosophy, and among its supporters are the Bells, NCTA, CTIA, USTA, Sprint, Nextel, Level 3, Western Wireless, Comcast, Disney, EchoStar, Motorola, News Corp., Sony Music, Time Warner, Viacom, Vivendi Universal and high technology companies.
