“*Elon Musk*’s Starlink was not the only major company to inflate its capabilities <https://broadbandbreakfast.com/2021/04/rdof-reverse-auction-criticized-google-makes-pandemic-gains-california-broadband-access-for-k-12/> in RDOF bids. Nearly 100 bidders have defaulted since the auction, leaving in limbo an estimated $2.8 billion <https://broadbandbreakfast.com/2023/06/what-happens-to-the-estimated-2-8-billion-in-rdof-defaults/> of the $9.2 billion originally awarded.
The FCC upheld another denial <https://broadbandbreakfast.com/2023/12/fcc-proposes-22-million-fine-against-ltd-over-rdof/> on Monday in the case of LTD Broadband, which appealed the commission’s finding that it could not reasonably serve the more than 500,000 locations to which it had committed. The commission also hit LTD with a $21.7 million fine for its default. The commission’s two Republicans dissented to Starlink’s denial, claiming they saw a path for the company to improve its speeds before the first deployment deadline in 2025.” https://broadbandbreakfast.com/2023/12/fcc-upholds-denial-of-starlinks-rdof-application/ All the best, Frank Frantisek (Frank) Borsik https://www.linkedin.com/in/frantisekborsik Signal, Telegram, WhatsApp: +421919416714 iMessage, mobile: +420775230885 Skype: casioa5302ca frantisek.bor...@gmail.com
