M2Z must be able to use spectrum (air waves) in order to offer the wireless service. M2Z has an application pending at the FCC requesting a license to use the spectrum. The spectrum being sought by M2Z has been fallow for over 7 years. There are no rules for it, it has not been unscored by OMB and no one has previously asked to use it. On August 31st 2007, nearly 16 months after M2Z submitted it’s application, the FCC dismissed the M2Z proposal and stated they need more time to determine if free, fast, and family friendly broadband is in the public interest. You can send a letter to the FCC and / or your Congressmen / Senators to indicate your support for free, fast, and family-friendly nationwide broadband by visiting the “Support M2Z” page on this website.
