A year after its broadband expansion was put on hold, Louisiana gets the go-ahead
Louisiana is one of the first states to gain final re-approval of a federally funded internet deployment plan worth $1.36 billion and serving 127,000 locations. That allocation is a cut from the original plan approved for the state in 2024 in the last days of the Biden administration.
The original GUMBO 2.0 application was set to cover 140,000 locations, including many of the state’s most remote areas, all with fiber internet. The final proposal instead will cover 13,000 fewer locations. Many other locations will still receive coverage, but from less consistent satellite internet.
Governor Jeff Landry and U.S. Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnik have tried to sell cuts to the program as a positive by emphasizing cost savings. The state’s new application touts $250 million in savings, which were primarily created by cutting out the most rural residents.
Any connection that cost more than $8,000 was removed from the fiber internet grants and instead may be covered by improved satellite internet. Some residents, however, will see no improvement at all after years of planning and the original promise of connecting the whole state through fiber internet.
The federal Broadband Equity Access and Deployment program, which funded the locals’ GUMBO 2.0 program, will still connect twice as many locations as its predecessor, GUMBO 1.0, which was funded in 2021 and is still underway.
Published:March 1811:46 am Louisiana expanded internet access through a federal program— now the future is uncertainLouisiana was the first state to be approved for a new round of funding — until it was paused by the Trump administration.
Louisiana used federal treasury funding to fund that program. That deployment is now over 80% complete, closing in on the final goal of bringing improved broadband internet to 61,400 locations.
GUMBO 2.0 is set to cover 127,000 additional locations across the state, including homes, private businesses and public buildings, using 14 different internet service providers, most of them local.
Many of these companies were part of the deployment of GUMBO 1.0, priming them to get started quickly now that the new round of funding has been approved.
“With this approval, we can shift from planning to putting shovels in the ground in the next several weeks,” said Veneeth Iyengar, Executive Director of ConnectLA, in a press release on Tuesday.

#USA #NTIA #Wireless #SpectrumSharing #6G: "Today, the National Telecommunications and Information Administration announced its implementation plan for President Biden’s National Spectrum Strategy to secure the future of U.S. wireless policy and innovation.
The plan is designed to secure our digital future with “four pillars”: (1) Securing adequate spectrum for next-generation services such as 6G and Wi-Fi 7 without disrupting federal operations (and avoiding interagency feuds such as the fight in 2022 that temporarily shut down air travel); (2) create a stakeholder-driven process to forge a long-term “spectrum pipeline”; (3) facilitate research into cutting-edge spectrum technologies such as dynamic spectrum sharing; and (4) grow our shrinking spectrum workforce to support the wireless economy."

Between CES requiring me to fly to Las Vegas last Sunday–which itself required that I spend last Saturday working to get ready for the show–and then the ShmooCon information-security conference occupying my attention in D.C. Friday through Sunday, I’ve had 11 days in a row of work. And I am a little tired now.
Patreon readers got a bonus post this week: my annual breakdown of where my income came from, as sorted by the business models of my clients.
1/8/2024: CES 2024: Punkt. Partners With Apostrophy for Privacy-First Phone, PCMag
My PCMag colleague Eric Zeman wrote the first take of this from the East Coast, then I met Apostrophy co-founder and CEO Steve Cistulli for a hands-on inspection of the first smartphone running this startup’s privacy-optimized fork of Android’s open-sourced code. The next morning, I updated the story with my observations and quotes and added myself to the byline.
1/11/2024: At CES, Dish touts $50 million grant alongside spectrum transaction, Light Reading
I had an off-Strip field trip Wednesday morning to see Charlie Ergen, chair of Dish Wireless’s parent firm EchoStar, speak alongside National Telecommunications and Information Administration head Alan Davison about Dish winning a $50 million award from the government to set up a center to test wireless network gear for Open RAN (radio access network) compatibility.

Hands-on experience Tuesday and spectating Wednesday allowed me to file this report from CES exhibits of a new, soccer-derived sport in which handballs are impossible but “droneball” in-flight collisions are all but assured.
1/11/2024: Cloud Security – The Safest Altitude?, CES
I led this panel discussion Thursday morning between Mason Clutter, chief privacy officer of the Department of Homeland Security; Peter Prizio, CEO of the infosec firm SnapAttack, and Melissa Smith, head of strategy and tech partnerships at Google’s infosec subsidiary Mandiant. We had a great conversation onstage, and then I was confused to see nobody in the audience step up to ask a question or even offer a question that was more of a comment.
