Extensive article from Ars Technica.https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2024/11/trumps-fcc-chair-is-brendan-carr-who-wants-to-regulate-everyone-except-isps/I do however consider the author Jon Brodkin to have a chip on his shoulder when it comes to ISPs.I had forgotten about Trump not renominating Michael O'Rielly, who we considered a friend of WISPs. I remember hearing him speak at WISPAmerica. Kind of a nerd but definitely pro small business. I don't think he was as ambitious or politically attuned as Pai.---- Original Message ----From: "Josh Luthman" Sent: 11/18/2024 9:12:23 PMTo: "AnimalFarm Microwave Users Group" Subject: Re: [AFMUG] new FCC boss"Free money" with a shit ton of strings.On Mon, Nov 18, 2024 at 6:53?PM Bill Prince <part15...@gmail.com> wrote:
Last I heard, Tiktok had some kind of deadline, which they were not planning to meet. EVs. I do not know whether Elon cares or not. I was pretty sure OMT thought they were evil, but when he hooked up with Elon, maybe he's going to change hit mind? As far a BEAD is concerned, I was always under the impression free money was good.

And are EVs good, or bad? ? And what if all the fiber techs are illegal immigrants? ? As far as BEAD, even without a DOGE department, a lot of people might agree that BEAD is way too big and a waste of taxpayer money.? But is it too late to get the genie back in the bottle?? Normally I would think so.? But the next administration is promising a lot of things that I would normally think are too outside the box, so maybe BEAD could get cancelled or at least get a severe haircut. -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
