The Lee Rayburn Show on Wisconsin Public Radio discussed consumer protection issues, focusing on scams and the limitations of satellite broadband in Wisconsin. The Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection (DATCAP) highlighted ongoing scams, including a gold bar scam that has defrauded residents of significant sums. The show also addressed the challenges of satellite broadband, particularly Starlink, in providing reliable internet access in rural areas.
