https://www.tvtechnology.com/news/fcc-opens-entire-6-ghz-band-to-very-low-power-device-operations

The FCC has unanimously adopted new rules to expand very-low-power device operations across all 1,200 megahertz of >the 6-GHz band alongside other unlicensed and Wi-Fi-enabled devices.

Despite opposition from the NAB and other parties who have argued that opening up the spectrum would create problems >for fixed microwave links, satellite uplinks and broadcast auxiliary services that use this spectrum, the FCC has in recent years been opening up parts of the 6-GHz band.

People need to be buying small devices like this and making mishnetworks all across the USA that are independent of major internet providers.

In the past, every time the government has done something that seemed like it was good has turned out really awful for us.

-The drinking age being increased to 21

-the requirement of seat belts

-affirmative action

-the TSA

-bailouts for banks

-electronic voting machines

That's a short list. Did your thumbs get tired?

I can't blame @RMGoetbbels, the entire list would run Upgoat out of bandwidth for the rest of the month.

What is the NAB?

It was pretty interesting to me that they did not once spell it out so we had to figure out which jew was jewing us. I'm not too worried about fellow goats, but others outside the fence may not be bothered to sort it out.

dude i even had to do a search because i honestly forgot. what they have done with asct 3.0 is quite criminal by encrypting the signals. remember you pay taxes to the FCC and the FTC to represent the public at large

So transmitting in this band might interfere with the mainstream media? Oh no!
