Superhubs how the financial elite and their Networks Rule our world. I think many of the superhubs see whats wrong with the system but its also one of the key questions i ask in the book, is do they hold the system prisoner or are they prisoners of the system . Is it their fault or is it the systems fault . And i come to the conclusion its the interaction of both. Sunday night at 8 00 p. M. Eastern on cspans q a. Next a look at Wireless Technology and spectrum policy as representatives from the Communications Industry testify at the Senate Commerce subcommittee hearing. Its two hours. Good morning. On behalf of my friend senator shotts and i, im glad to convene the first hearing of subcommittee on communications technology, innovation and the internet, with the 115th congress. So welcome to you all. As we all know, in todays connected world, the demand for spectrum increases with every new technology. Spectrum is the life blood of this connectivity, improving lives of people around the
Said there. Wti, 49. 54. You rolled your eyes. Im trying to figure out i initially thought that ge was going to sort of double down and cost average in, because now things are cheaper to buy. It looks like this is sort of if response to trian, trying to get more focused on turbines and medical imaging and the other businesses, sort of maybe offload something theyve been trying to get in in such a big way since 2007. Theyve been adding to oil and gas, right . Now theyre getting out. We dont know. Though the company picked all the wrong times to get into all the wrong businesses. I wasnt going to say that. Being a big bank, energy company, or a media company. Which makes me think they own all these what i think are valuable oil and gas assets, now its cheaper to buy them, the ones you bought for too much, you can buy them at a better price. Now they will offload some of the stuff they bought at higher prices . Put it into a partnership, spin it off. Unclear. Have you made calls on this .
Minister, and to rose hudson wilkins, our wonderful chaplain, for accompanying me to the vigil for jo last friday. At the priestly statute in the center of that lovely town. We, all of us, were moved by the energy and warmth of the crowd brought together in grief and solidarity. Ive been very moved when the public outpourings since her death. The hundreds of letters and emails weve all received in solidarity with joes family in their hour of grief. And by the outpouring of charitable donations to causes close to her heart, hope not hate, and the royal voluntary services. Last night my honorable friend the member for south and myself held a vigil outside our townhall. One of hundreds of vigils attended by tens of thousands of people the right across our land who are so shocked i what happened, and what to express that shock and grief. Also what you think of the parties in this house who offered their sympathy and support at this very difficult time. We united in grief at her loss, and w
Of the low latency activity. It is why American Leadership in 5g must be a National Priority. That is the example i gave you was just one example of how the driving force of the 21st century will be powerful processing, centralized in the cloud and wirelessly connected to clients, Autonomous Vehicles will be controlled in the cloud. Smart city energy grids, transportation networks, and Water Systems will be controlled in the cloud. Summers of education and Entertainment Company the club. Such futures will come to pass unless the pathway to and from the cloud is low latency, ultrafast, and secure. Now we have learned anything in the generational march through Wireless Connectivity, it is that we have always underestimated the innovation that would result from new generations of Wireless Networks. The first generation wireless, one she was voice, and then early 1880s they said there be 900,000 cell phone subscribers by the turnofthecentury, well it turns out there was 109,000,000. They w
The key point here is that by opening up these higher frequency bands, were making available more license spectrum for mobile then the accumulative history dating back to read hunt with the fcc has here to four made available. At this point of the program theres some audio issues with the microphones at the National Press club. So we lost a moment or two of time wheelers comment. It be advantageous for the satellite mobile industries to come together to propose realistic ideas for their and to do so quickly. Satellite and terrestrial stakeholders have suggested a range of sharing options in the draft spectrum frontiers order seeks to provide a balanced solution that addresses the needs of both parties. Im confident that well adopt rules that will enable satellite, terrestrial, and federal operations to coexist and thrive. To make sure that we had this connectivity with high print spectrum will require a lot more small cells which means a lot more antenna decisions by local governments.
