Washington, December 13: The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in the US has announced not to award Elon Musk슬롯사이트™s Starlink nearly $900 million subsidy for expanding broadband service in rural areas, based on its failure to meet the basic programme requirements. The 슬롯사이트˜Universal Service Fund슬롯사이트� programme, which uses funding collected from consumers, sought to expand access to broadband networks in rural areas.

슬롯사이트œThe FCC followed a careful legal, technical and policy review to determine that this applicant (Starlink) had failed to meet its burden to be entitled to nearly $900 million in universal service funds for almost a decade,슬롯사이트� said FCC Chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel. The agency qualified Starlink at the short-form stage, but at the long-form stage, the Commission determined that Starlink failed to demonstrate that it could deliver the promised service.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Elon Musk-Run X Sees Ad Share Nosediving, May Miss Internal Target of USD 3 Billion.
