well there there the f.c.c. has historically said that all crypto currency is except for because implicitly our securities and i disagree with that they've backed away from that and are now actually opening the door to the notion that something might change its stripes in other words it might have been a security when it when it began but like a theory i'm it's become so decentralized same with bitcoin it's become so decentralized that it's no longer a security also of course the there is a push to get financial is ation of big coin done through traditional wall street products like e.t.f. depository receipts and that's it that's a big part it doesn't sound like the e.t.f. will be approved anytime release of the because they keep making noises about it like it's just coming it's just coming with us to get price discovery locked down not happy with how you're doing price discovery and what you think that they're pushing it because they're doing due diligence or because it's an orchestrated campaign to kind of int

plugging throttling your internet wasn't enough for the f.c.c. now they're coming for your tax because the drug administration just killed net neutrality for text messages. classifies jordan as an information service rather than a telecom service which are messages protected from discrimination and it's the latest abomination from f.c.c. chair by a former rising lawyer who after were appealing net neutrality added insult to injury with a video about all the things we can still do online after the repeal tries excuse for this move is that it will give wireless carriers the way to stop spam tax without fear of breaking the law and systems bromo tax from taking over phones away robo calls. the problem is high end of tech these wireless carriers consider spam and we already got a few hints. attacks the voice campaign that would raise money for survivors of the haiti earthquake in twenty two. or three years earlier when blocked a voluntary touch message program from abortion rights may roll pro-choice america because a rising refusal to approve any pr

who voiced displeasure that the deal didn't go through as a matter of fact so when the head of the f.c.c. is sheet pie. red flag this deal and said something's not right here essentially up waves especially to sinclair but reportedly what sinclair was going to do when they had to get rid of stations to meet the threshold for instance that they did get rid of well yeah but they were good they were going to sell their chicago with the tribune to acquisition. reportedly to a car dealer who had a business relationship with a sinclair executive they were going to sell the used in dallas stations to a company that had a part in the in the estate of an executive's mother so the f.c.c. looked at this and said all know this is this is against the law and that's why i think sinclair is being sued now by tribune for putting them through all that so that i don't think that's going to happen here with the next star i think next year has a good relationship with the f.c.c. and they're going to do everything properly and the way it should be done it's amazing and you know you grew up around this area b

securities and exchange commission the f.c.c. doesn't respect them as you may recall the f.c.c. fine mr must twenty million dollars and fined tesla the company twenty million dollars for mr bus tweets which gave false market signals about the possibility of tesla going private mr musk was also required to step down as chairman of the tesla board here for more tests and other auto news is the car coach lauren fix who joins us from san diego hey lauren thank you for being with us what do you make of the newest episode of how to sabotage your company all by yourself. well i think he's doing a good job the seven self i think at some point is the f.c.c. is totally spineless or they're going to wake up and say wait a minute this guy is really not paying attention i mean he puts out some of the wildest tweets that i had in his followers they buy stock they sell stock it's you know i it's so volatile i wouldn't even get involved in the stock for that but the fact that he's basically disrespecting the s. and c. i hope they come back and they they set an example of him because that is not

study demonstrated compliance with f.c.c. regulations. appellant erroneously relied on and presented out of context various f.c.c. bulletins and guides that i mentioned in the prior hearing are for colocation, when you have more than one carrier on a tower. this is not the case here. sprint, our client, will be the only carrier on this pole. city standards do require us to take into consideration facilities within 100 feet. the city recently approved a verizon facility across the street on a street light pole. the effects on that were considered in our report, even though that facility has not been built yet, but based on the data, it was considered. so again, the r.f. study proved we were in compliant, and therefore, there's -- there are no grounds to uphold the appeal on the basis of the r.f. emissions. appellant also argued that the noise study failed to show potential contributions from reflected indirect noise. with the way this facility's situated, the primary face of the secondary equipment enclosure is actually oriented toward the

people in the f.c.c. has not changed their guidelines those guidelines are twenty years old they were set in one thousand nine hundred six based on exposure from one device so we don't even have any standards at all these are just guidelines and we certainly don't have anything that represents how we use technology today one device is what our standards are guidelines represent how does that compare to a classroom of thirty students who are all thirty students have a cell phone and all thirty students are using some sort of a tablet or and a laptop and then you've got access points up on the ceiling you might have a cell tower outside your school and you might have smart meters on the wall we don't have any regulation around that and we are just continually bathing our citizens in this microwave radiation right now or outside the f.c.c. building in washington d.c. . and the reason we're here is that they're about to have an open meeting about five g. and. basically they're kind of deliberating about how t

if you're one of those people that still believe the f.c.c. was trying to do us a favor consider that if they had left alone wireless carriers like arisan would still be able to filter out spam messages or consumer movie s.c.b. when looking for a solution to a problem they already zol and created an entirely new problem in the process. just like whoever thought it was a great idea to train cats how to use the toilet good for you now you just create a competition for the bathroom in the morning on your way to wire. the activists to protest the corporate greed of these telecom companies represent are facing yet another digital roadblock and while platforms like facebook messenger or whatsapp are ways. around this it assumes you live in an area with reliable white by. or that you're fine with the fact that facebook scans the photos and links you send on messenger. and that facebook own whatsapp ok if i'm going to have any autonomy over my tax i'm at least awaiting my own stupid ass chain letter tax. ok say ok i am still here. the but the but. for

you probably remember the whole fight over net neutrality which the f.c.c. decided to crush free and open the internet well now they're going to crush free and open text messaging that's right say goodbye to text neutrality for more on this here's our truth bomber jacket correspondent natalie mcgill. thirty years since being out says he voted to get rid of net neutrality and if you're watching this on a mobile device it's a miracle you've made it this far without any signs of buffer. god damn it spoke to sit it. watching them throttling your internet wasn't enough for the m.c.c. now they're coming for your tax because the trumpet ministration just killed net neutrality for text messages this classifies your tax as an information service rather than a telecom service when your messages were protected from discrimination and it's the latest abomination from have c.c. chair. a former for rising lawyer who after repealing net neutrality added insult to injury with a video about all the things we can still do online after the appeal is excuse for this move it is

pursuant to the f.c.c.'s federal statute 6409. planning would be pree.sed from regulating various aspects of future site modification and would have limited discretionary authority. planning does not support this alternative design because it does not comply with section nine building, siding criteria and the wireless siting guidelines. the remaining designs are all rooftop proposal which is i'll go over briefly and can provide additional information upon request. design three shows unscreened antennas which are gently not preferred by planning but the alternative addresses community concerns regarding bulk, planning does not recommend support of this design. design four shows antennas screened inside radums here on the top northeast corner. this alternative addresses community concerns regarding bulk and height, planning recommends support of this design. design five shows antennas located at the northeast and northwest corners of the rooftop and screened behind raised f.r.p. corners and planning recommends support of this design

premium but then it became clear that the funding with not secured as market claimed in his tweet so the f.c.c. started investigating and now musk is not the chairman anymore he is still c.e.o. though and just on friday tesla named two new independent chairman to its board and the other company that comes to mind is apple in the first half of the year the effort to make a with quite busy with buying back its own stock like so many others fueled by a large tax windfall but this was not a good investment to be on this s. the stock fell on sluggish i fundament so many worries here around apple and then we had facebook and the cameras and the letter because scandal and other drama wall street to be honest lots of culprit drama actually exactly the same here on this side of the atlantic protest apple and i knew you were going to mention facebook so what were the most important stories for investors would you say. well in general i think it was the year off the fang a company is not being investors favorites anymore to the word to best suspect the year on wall street would probably be volatility and

in accordance with article 25 and f.c.c. guidelines, planning approved and reviewed the aesthetics according to article 25 and city policy, and all found mobility to be in compliance with the rules and regulations of the city. as to the specific complaints, here to address them briefly, the noticing, mobility mailed notice of the ten at thattive approval to all required parties as stated in the declaration. that's part of the permitting process and was included in the brief. we also posted the notice on the subject pole and on an additional pole on the block face perthe declaration in city requirements. the final determination of the permit was also posted on the subject pole and an additional pole on the block face as evidenced by the multitude of respondents and protesters, it's clear the residents were informed. you know, i can't speak to a perfect reliability of the u.s. postal service, but between mailing and posting, it's clear that the message got out there that we had proposed the small cell site. as to the planning

are just continually baiting our citizens in this microwave radiation right now we're outside the f.c.c. building in washington d.c. . and the reason we're here is that they're about to have an open meeting about five g. and. basically they're kind of deliberating about how to make it as easy and painless as possible for the telecom industry to install hundreds of thousands of mini cell towers one for every other house everywhere with no restrictions on where they seriously turning like what is already a health crisis into just like a health nightmare we want to acknowledge and we just want to say. there are too many people that can no longer continue with their profession because they're just still unfortunately there is no known treatment that it's guaranteed to work there is also very limited evidence for a blood test that would give you diagnosis of elect representatives our federal government as totally shut down all funding for this kind of research. and that's been the case for what twenty years why there is no finding for a variety of reasons. we have a very aggressive telecommu
