Subject: The Best and Worst Cities for Verizon 5G
By Sascha Segan
Verizon's 5G network is at a crossroads. After two years grinding
along installing short-range millimeter-wave 5G, it's aiming to flip
the switch on 100 million Americans' worth of mid-band 5G next
year. This "C-band" launch will help Verizon compete with T-Mobile,
which dominated our Fastest Mobile Networks tests this year.

Subject: FCC proposes $5 million fine against political
robocallers
[news story, with links to it and the FCC release]
FCC looks to fine conservative activists $5 million for
false mail voting robocalls
The Federal Communications Commission proposed a $5.1 million fine against
conservative activists Jacob Wohl and John Burkman and J.M. Burkman &
Associations for making 1,141 unlawful robocalls that made false claims
about mail voting, the agency said on Tuesday.
"Did you know that if you vote by mail, your personal information will
be part of a public database that will be used by police departments to
track down old warrants and be used by credit card companies to collect
outstanding debts?" the call says, before also erroneously claiming the
CDC might use such data to enforce mandatory vaccines.
