Director of the Agricultural Broadband Affairs program comes out with a warning to switch to “Balt” satellite internet
Evan Feinman, who directed the broadband capital, access and implementation of $ 42.5 billion (Bead) designed to bring high -speed Internet access to rural areas, came out of Friday after he was not reassigned for a new term as he was not reassigned for a new mandate as he was not reassigned to PropublicaCraig Silverman. In an email sent to the employees Silverman shared screenshots of ON Feynman warned against the changes proposed by the new administration, which could “take advantage of the technology that provides a faster speed at higher costs for the household paying the bill” to arrange the pockets of Elon Musk.
Bead was established in 2021 and the new secretary of trade Howard Luni recently announced that which he said “did not connect any person to the Internet” due to the processing of the previous administration. In a Lutnick has called for a “technologically neutral position” that will remove the preference for faster fiber connections and open the door to switch to satellite internet, such as the one offered by Starlink on Elon Musk. Lutin also struck “Awakened mandates, favorites to certain technologies and stressful regulations.”
In the email shared on Sunday, Feinman called on his colleagues to speak in favor of removing “unnecessary requirements”, but warned against a deviation from fiber. The bottom line is that he wrote:
The new administration seems to want to make changes that ignore the clear direction exposed by Congress to reduce the number of US homes and businesses that receive fiber connections and increase the number that receive satellite connections. The degree of this change remains unknown, but regardless of size, it will be a service for rural and small America. The tension of all or part of rural America with a higher internet so that we can do the most rich person in the world even more rich, is another in a long line of betrayal from Washington.
