For those that may think that the regulatory bodies "looking out for consumers" regulating wireless
are impartial and keeping the public safe....
Look at who is being stated to head the FCC.
The leading Wireless industry lobbiest.
Wheeler previously served as president of lobbyist group the National Cable Television Association (NCTA)
and then as CEO of the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA).
He's currently managing director at investment firm Core Capital Partners.
Core Capital Partners a venture capital company is heavily invested in wireless and cloud companies.
One of them:
PureWave Networks develops high performance, compact outdoor base stations for the 4G marketplace.
PureWave Networks is the only company that utilizes smart antenna technology to achieve the coverage
and capacity of a macro base station in a small form factor that can be deployed anywhere.
Our solutions are versatile enough to be deployed for small cell urban coverage or for macro base station rural coverage.
The PureWave Quantum Base Station family offers an open end-to-end solution that allows customers to
build their networks using any component available in the vibrant WiMAX ecosystem.
All solutions are designed for any type of operator, from small WISPs to large mobile service providers.
This is an example of what is behind regulatory bodies.
FCC run by venture capital CEO that was also CEO of the largest wireless lobbying group in the world.
CTIA calls itself the wireless association.
So all these companies got there guy to head the very body that is supposed to regulate them!!!
