The legislation, which was signed into law by Governor Andrew Cuomo on December 2, 2019, is intended to close a loophole in New York's Do Not Call Law, which originally took effect in 2001. https://www.mondaq.com/Article/897432?email_access=on -- Bill Horne Telecom Digest Moderator ------------------------------ Message-ID: <20200304050445.GA10948@telecom.csail.mit.edu> Date: Wed, 4 Mar 2020 05:04:45 +0000 From: Moderator <telecomdigestsubmissions@remove-this.telecom-digest.org> Subject: Why 5G Won't Follow The Typical Deployment Approach Why 5G Won't Follow The Typical Deployment Approach (And New Opportunities For Investors In Broadband) by Joe Kochan and Brian Greene Mobile network infrastructure deployment in the U.S. has always followed a familiar path: three or four large equipment manufacturers struggle with each other to sell radios to three or four national carriers, which race to raise billions of dollars to buy spectrum and fund deployment. These investments get paid off over years as we all pay monthly bills (and overage fees) and buy new devices. https://www.mondaq.com/Article/897216?email_access=on -- Bill Horne Telecom Digest Moderator ------------------------------ Message-ID: <20200304180812.GA13836@telecom.csail.mit.edu> Date: Wed, 4 Mar 2020 18:08:12 +0000 From: Moderator <telecomdigestsubmissions@remove-this.telecom-digest.org> Subject: T-Mobile to fight $91M FCC fine over location data sales by Bevin Fletcher T-Mobile said it intends to fight a $91.6 million fine proposed by the FCC against the carrier related to unauthorized sales of customers' real-time location data to third-parties. The FCC announced (PDF) last week that it was issuing Notices of Apparent Liability for Forfeiture and Admonishment (NALs) to T-Mobile, AT&T, Sprint and Verizon, with the collective penalties totaling about $209 million. https://www.fiercewireless.com/regulatory/t-mobile-to-fight-91m-fcc-fine-over-location-data-sales -- Bill Horne Telecom Digest Moderator ------------------------------ ********************************************* End of telecom Digest Thu, 05 Mar 2020
