Starlink under Elon Musk is positioned to acquire a $2.4 billion Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) air traffic control communication system modernization contract from Verizon. The $2.4 billion contract that Verizon won is set to be canceled by the FAA before SpaceX takes over the project, according to reports. This potential shift raises serious questions about preferential treatment and conflicting interests.

the only innovation T has is the strategy to make employee suffer, eg. Creating a parking mess that would make some people to park illegally then get towed, no assigned seating that would allow make people to literally hog the kitchen/dining area, come in 5x a week 8hrs a day for exempt employees who have been hybrid for decades, nothing to do with covid. Lastly, create a broken presence report to just randomly pick the lucky a..s..s.hole who will get laid off in a couple of months… then pay lawyers so no one in his low IQ csuites get sued. Rinse, repeat.
"Commenters ate ignorant. Doesn’t matter who you voted for. Stankey refuses to admit that Starlink is a competitor. Perhaps he’s right. Maybe we want to be #3. Maybe we do only need 20% of the employees we have now to run an outdated company"
Stankey is not interest if ATT is 1, 2, 3, etc. He cannot worry about that because he is a man that loves to follow what everyone else is doing, he has zero sense of vision, and he certainly has no idea how to lead the company to innovation. He is basically lost and is just trying to please the investors enough to get by. Fake it till you make it. And he is most certainly faking it.
Haha, white paper, just a report or guide at best, how many years till implementation? You know how many “white papers” I’ve seen that never became a reality? Too many to count. Doesn’t hurt to dream and cast a vision but when you have a real working and proven prototype that can be scaled then you can talk sm--k about your o-ring orfice.
These satellite guys have been talking about how they are going to take over the world since iridium. One day it might happen, keep up the good work Poindexter.
There is no innovation at T. Who do you think can innovate here if CEO is a copper graduate. On top of that our only goal is to show up at the crowded office 5x8 and that is causing T stock to skyrocket. I think Stankey is a genius.
“Satellite is a niche product, doesn’t have the capacity, latency and reliability for the majority of consumers like the fiber network.”
Spoken like a man that thought a 3.5” floppy disk was all the storage humankind would ever need. Time marches on boomer. You need a vision of the future without clouding it through the lens of today. You should read my white paper on “Reflective Nano Data Particles and hypersonic-accelerated, three dimensional infrared lasers.” That will smoke your O-ring.
Satellite is a niche product, doesn’t have the capacity, latency and reliability for the majority of consumers like the fiber network. Satellite and fixed wireless fills a void for low population, uneconomical areas and other specialty needs. As AI, ioT, VR, robotics, vehicles and many other connected devices and software come on-line it’s going to take all technologies to support the national network. Data usage has been growing exponentially everyday with no end in sight.
The other major need not talked about as much is energy, with all the huge data centers, equipment and manufacturing to come on-line there is and will be a need for energy to double or triple over what’s currently available. Nuclear fusion and other alternate sources will have to be a part of the equation in addition to, drill baby drill!
Don’t care.
Bring back WFH is more important.

Mist T employees are incapable of innovation.
