This report speaks about neighborhoods in cities but we know that poorer rural communities get the same deal from major providers. https://t.co/YFCpdrx3AO

[The Markup @themarkup]

NEW: In cities across the U.S., four major internet providers are charging the same price for drastically different speeds.

And the worst deals were disproportionately offered to lower-income and least-White neighborhoods, @LeonYin and @ASankin found. https://t.co/qEGACtDQpF

''The data in the record demonstrates that satellite, #5G and unlicensed underlay could exist in the band and, given the need for efficient use of #spectrum, they should follow the science on this.'' -@greg_guicepk @publicknowledge https://t.co/VFbGEju4ne

Get the real facts on why 35 Coalition members stand ready to use 12 GHz to empower Americans w/ more connectivity, greater options, and lower costs. https://t.co/7jKnhmfZTd

[Rural Broadband @RuralBBPolicy]

This tactic, which is commonly used by Elon Musk, is not only disingenuous, but it promulgates an anti-5G narrative that is harmful to American consumers who deserve greater competition, connectivity options and innovation. https://t.co/8OyMYsDQVS

What's worse, Starlink is leading a public misinformation campaign by falsely telling customers and the public that coexistence is not possible in the band among Starlink and 5G services. https://t.co/TGrfpy06wT

[Rural Broadband @RuralBBPolicy]

Starlink's manipulated filing on 12 GHz grossly distorts the #5G network configuration to create interference with NGSO terminals. As real data shows, 99.85% of NGSOs experience no risk of harmful interference alongside 5G. https://t.co/vOLBUqgk0d

READ: The Coalition is setting the record straight on #starlink's misinformation campaign on the @FCC 12GHz proceeding. As expert data clearly shows, Starlink's claims are scientifically & logically flawed. https://t.co/TGrfpy06wT

Creating a Digital Equity Foundation is the next step to achieving digital equity and adoption. But what does that entail? @OTI and the PtP Project released a paper discussing best practices for such a foundation. https://t.co/Y7VLrbEi6Q

Big teleco & media companies are trying to stop Gigi Sohn's nomination to @FCC because they know that she will stand up for workers and consumers. Don't let them. Call your Senators at 888-659-4149 to tell them to vote to approve Gigi Sohn for the FCC.

With legacy phone disappearing, what protections do consumers have on #VOIP networks? What should the @FCC do, and what happens if it does nothing? Learn more on Friday, April 29 at 1:30pm ET. RSVP at: https://t.co/Fr3bQmBEhg

Gigi Sohn will be great for rural folks as an FCC commissioner, attacks just reinforce that notion https://t.co/CmOwRkgMxa

We’re proud to partner with @rurallisc to launch a map of uptake in the FCC’s former Emergency Broadband Benefit. This tool will help groups target outreach for the new Affordable Connectivity Program & get more eligible households enrolled. Read more here https://t.co/2LC9nz0MpQ
