and "Rein in big tech" probably isn't in the FCC's wheelhouse and probably also shouldn't be done.

According to the commentary printed in Newsweek ( https://www.newsweek.com/brendan-carr-trump-fcc-pick-project-2025-chapter-1987413 ), he would have 4 main priorities: 1. Rein in big tech 2. Promote National Security 3. Unleash economic prosperity 4. Ensure FCC accountability and good governence So there is little to nothing in the bullet points that mention the little guy. I would expect he would ignore the little guy. The national security part is a non-specific reference to killing Tiktok. The economic prosperity is a direct boost to Starlink (and is mentioned by name in Project 25). The accountability part indicates that he wants more transparency, and I think that is a good thing. bp <part15sbs{at}gmail{dot}com> On 11/18/2024 10:55 AM, Dev wrote: So what will Carr do for/against the little guys? -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
