Subject: FCC grants first batch of 2.5 GHz licenses - minus T-Mobile
By Monica Alleven
The FCC’s Wireless Telecommunications Bureau on Thursday granted the
first batch of county-based overlay licenses from the 2.5 GHz auction,
but T-Mobile was not among them.
The FCC said it granted 51 of the 68 total long-form applications
received from winning bidders in Auction 108, following what it called
a “thorough review of the applications and a period of public
comment.”

Subject: ULTRA UNRELIABLE: How a bad deal with Verizon has cost San
Diegans, three years later
In pre-pandemic April 2019, Mayor Kevin Faulconer signed a Public
Private Partnership with Verizon, giving the Company discounted rent for
use of public assets and shortened permitting timeframes to deploy
infrastructure for the Company’s 5G wireless network. The deal was
initiated and negotiated by a Verizon lobbyist, entirely bypassing City
Council and public input.
Faulconer touted the Verizon deal saying it would “increase services and
expand our smart cities capabilities, at no additional costs to
taxpayers.” However, three years into the 10-year deal term, San
Diegans are subsidizing the buildout of Verizon’s 5G network, and
promised community benefits have failed to materialize, potentially
costing taxpayers over a million dollars.

Subject: Ringless Voicemails Require TCPA Consent
by David O. Klein
On November 21, 2022, the Federal Communications Commission (the "FCC"
or "Commission") issued a declaratory ruling and order finding that
“ringless voicemails” are subject to the Telephone Consumer Protection
Act (“TCPA”) and, therefore, require prior express consent from
wireless recipients. This ruling should end the long-standing debate
over whether consent is required to deliver ringless voicemail
messages. The order makes clear that the FCC is not prohibiting the
sending of ringless voicemail; rather, it is clarifying that ringless
voicemail messaging is subject to the TCPA. The FCC ruled that
ringless voicemail calls should be regulated under the artificial or
prerecorded voice prong of the statute, which requires the prior
express consent of consumers prior to delivery to wireless numbers.
