Techdirt’s Mike Masnick has a gift for catchy, acerbic shorthand terms to describe shenanigans. He coined the term “Streisand Effect” to describe any situation in which a relatively obscure piece of information becomes widely known through a ham-fisted attempt to censor it. He’s done it again: “Fiber to the press-release” is the phenomenon of incumbent carriers like AT&T making showy announcements about their intention to build super-fast broadband networks to replace their creaky, under-invested monopoly infrastructure, without ever mentioning scale, timelines, pricing, or any other specifics, only to have the announcement lapped up and repeated by a credulous press.
