Remember when Google was buying up dark fiber?
It scared everyone.
Now Google is going to bid on spectrum IF a bunch of conditions are met.
Those conditions will NOT be met. (Have you forgotten who chairs the FCC?)
So it is probably just a ploy.
And if they DO win some spectrum, the rules will
They wouldn't sell me a phone until I gave them a service address.
As I understand it, if they can't determine a location from the
regular cell tower triangulation, they use that address.
Personally, I don't care all that much. I lived for thirty years
before the 911 system was available.
GPS co-ordinates, your personal address, triangulation of cell towers to
pin point your locaton.
None of that satisfies e911, like the e911 that we are required to do

Yeah right. Google is gonna come up with 4.6 BILLION and THEN tell the FCC
that they should have to force them to have a wholesale program? If they
were THAT committed why not just buy the spectrum and offer the program
anyway.
Am I the ONLY cynic left in this group? grin
