Tech at Night: Cybersecurity action in the Senate, Soros squad on the move
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | May 15th at 02:00 AM |
In case you missed it, Friday’s Tech at night featured Q&A with Rep. Steve Scalise. Don’t miss is now. Team Soros, assemble! Remember when it was “wrong” for AT&T to get spectrum by buying T-Mobile? Remember when I said it should be allowed because the Obama administration and the radicals were making it too hard to get spectrum any other way? Vindication, baby: The left | Read More »

Tech at Night: CISPA passes the House, FCC passes campaign regulations, Boehner calls out Obama
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | April 28th at 01:30 AM |
So, the Internet died this week or something. CISPA was amended much, as I gather mostly tightening up some alleged privacy concerns. Then it passed the House. I don’t know if it’ll become law, but it’s a good idea. The comparisons with SOPA are deceptive. Speaker Boehner cut to the heart of the matter, pointing out that President Obama’s CISPA veto threat was rooted in | Read More »

Tech at Night: FCC costs us jobs, Cybersecurity threats real and imaginary, FISMA in the House
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | March 24th at 03:30 AM |
Ah, the FCC. If The FCC wanted to do incentive auctions to free up spectrum for wireless Internet, they could just do it. They wouldn’t need to set up a task force to talk about the National Broad band Plan to consider it, while instead getting involved in unrelated things like making its own security rules. We need FCC reform. Just say yes to Coase. | Read More »

Tech at Night: Google, FCC, Civil Defense spectrum
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | April 14th at 03:30 AM |
That’s one of the most boring and least unique Tech at Night titles ever, but I’m going to war with the links I have. Slade Gorton’s priorities are horribly wrong. I’m sorry, but that’s the way it is. On Tuesday the Greg Walden subcommittee held hearings on “Use of Spectrum with Public Safety.” I’ve already explained why I think the D Block of wireless spectrum | Read More »

Tech at Night: Google, Microsoft, Net Neutrality
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | April 12th at 03:30 AM |
In case you missed the great news Friday, Net Neutrality was repealed in the House. The resolution now must go to the Senate, where under the Congressional Review Act it cannot be filibustered, so it only needs 51 votes. And while I do hope that the House will follow up by attempting to repeal the redistributionist data roaming regulations passed last week, other work must | Read More »
