No company is above the law—not even Disney.
Disney has been embroiled in controversies for years now relating to promotion of DEI.
If a broadcaster has violated the public interest obligations of their FCC licenses, the agency is going to take action.
Under President Biden, the FCC revoked an $885 million award that Starlink won to provide high-speed Internet to millions of Americans.
Back then, the agency claimed that it was revoking the award because it was unlikely that Starlink could provide 100/20 Mbps service to 40% of locations by year end 2025.
I dissented at the time, explaining that the FCC's decision could not be squared with any objective application of law, facts, or policy. The data clearly showed that Starlink was on track.
Now, new Ookla data shows that well over that percentage of Speedtest user on Starlink did meet the 100/20 service level by year end 2025.
The Biden era decision to revoke the award only slowed down efforts to bridge the digital divide and raised costs for doing so.
