#BrendanCarr already sidestepped the ownership cap earlier this year when the #FCC approved Nexstar’s $6.2 billion merger with rival Tegna, which would give the country’s largest #TV owner an 80% reach into #US homes. That deal was subsequently blocked by a federal judge after DirecTV & several state attorneys general sued, alleging #antitrust violations. The case is ongoing.

"Did you know King Charles II had a favorite censorship czar by the name of Roger L'Estrange?
His job was to carry out the duties of the Crown's shiny new Licensing Act which required publishers (including printers and booksellers) to have a license to publish any works.
He LOVED his job."

A #SpaceMirror Will Test Turning Night Into Day. What To Know About the Controversial Project
by Jeffrey Kluger, Jul 14, 2026
Excerpt: "The company envisions multiple uses for sun-reflecting satellites: assisting search and rescue operations, allowing construction projects to operate around the clock, charging solar power stations, increasing crop yield. But critics cite all manner of risks. Human and animal #CircadianRhythms could be badly affected if the sun—or a simulacrum of it—never sets. The practice of changing the clocks by a mere hour twice a year is already known to mess with human sleep-wake cycles, after all. Plants could bloom when they shouldn’t and die before their time. Orbital mirrors flashing and winking back to Earth could distract airline pilots. Finally, #LightPollution is already interfering with astronomical observations—a problem made even worse by satellite constellations like #SpaceX’s 10,000-strong #Starlink fleet. #ReflectOrbital’s 50,000 birds would dwarf even that."
