@icedquinn @TheMadPirate the FCC should primarily be responsible for enacting policies that enable the broadest amount of use of the radio waves without causing interference. It's mostly technical job but the value behind it is tons and tons of local use.

The way it is done right now is the FCC has auctions and only megacorps are able to buy it, and in large swaths. Instead of serving the public interest, they load it with the most peurile and low quality "entertainment" which serves as flypaper for getting people to watch ads. It absolutely 0% works in the public interest the way it is managed now.
