Democrats Zephyr Teachout and Tim Wu released their technology policy plan Monday, picking up on one of Wu’s strongest areas.

The four-point policy plan includes calls for improved technology infrastructure; protection of personal data, privacy and surveillance; regulatory models; and open government and innovation plans.

While the plan as a whole is for the entire state, some of it could significantly help rural upstate areas. The plan calls for adoption of a statewide “dig once” initiative to include fiber networks during major roadwork to increase broadband coverage and competition. Expanding broadband internet statewide has long been a talking point of elected officials, especially in rural parts of the state, though it still hasn’t been achieved.

Tech and media policy is in Wu’s wheelhouse. He popularized net neutrality in 2003 and has served as a senior adviser to the Federal Trade Commission, among other tech-related resume highlights.

Alexis Ohanian, founder of Reddit, was at the unveiling of the technology plan and endorsed Teachout and Wu.

“I’m proud to endorse two candidates who understand the promise of the internet for revitalizing democracy and have the courage to fight for the open internet — a 21st century public utility essential to local and state economies,” Ohanian said in a statement. “New York State ought to be a role-model for the nation when it comes to tech policy and Zephyr Teachout and Tim Wu are the candidates to bring it to fruition.”

Meetup.com’s Scott Heiferman also was at the policy rollout and endorsed the two.
