Oh look, private industry solves a spectrum problem the FCC failed to solve between Sirius and AT&T. Hint, hint: let’s get FCC out of the way more often.
Chuck Schumer, oh you master of logic. Terrorists can use a technology, therefore ban it!. In this case, 3D maps from Google and Apple, as though they couldn’t just make their own using the same core technology anyway.
