""law enforcement to more easily identify callers that use the network to perpetuate crimes by ensuring that voice providers have accurate and complete customer information."

Big Trump supporter that I am ... and embarrassed ...  the quoted text seems straight out of Stalins' or Maos' mouth. Tyrannous governments DO things like this ... a yeomans republic not-so-much. We snatch-away your privacy/liberty for your own good; just as evil as limiting  freedom-of-association in the name of some DEI value.   What in gawdsname  is  Trumps FCC thinking ?

When Chinese companies are NEWLY ascribed to supporting Chinese interests  something is not OKey. For the last 60 years, did any American need to be taught that all Chinese companies, investors and citizens pimp their own military ... just like all USA citizens support our own military? This "surprise" discovery and assignment cannot be made in good faith.

What kind of whiny Euro-centric horse-shite is this? EU fucks-over their citizens ... look at migration policy ... and cares only to increase  government power ... like George-5 or Napoleon or Mussolini or ... anything from Brussels.  Euro-elites are notoriously self-interested ! And of-course proprietary "standards" create/preserve free retail markets as in 'let the best STANDARD  win' . Proprietary mechanisms are  how you encourage excellence thru blood-thirsty competition.

You make a good point. In the Akkadian and Assyrian cultures scribes were educated to keep track of the Kings property and taxes. Clearly infrastructure. But, the Greeks considered their concept of education equals personal perfection an improvement. The CHURCH certainly considered education part of their infrastructure, while the Reformers saw personal perfection as reflecting gawds favor. Where are we now? The academic  hype is personal while practically ... not 10 decades ago I got a offer to target nuclear weapons after earning a physics BS. Somebody thought they knew.

Indeed USA needs to "get over" buying from Asia at all. Use-it-here-make-it-here. Huge IP and employment upside, while "at-will" consumption is a vice. The American crafts industry can produce anything of "true" need, like a Scottsman produces true rubbers.

""Here's what uncomfortable people don't understand: the discomfort is the yield. Every paper-handed panic seller is handing their future to someone with a longer time horizon and a colder storage device."

Pimping the ride ... much ? Counterfeit monies like digicoyn need constant attention/'petting'  to retain role as an exchange media ... like a hi-maintain girlfriend.

You're whining. A big data--center in a poor rural county pays 90% of all  county services/expenses for the citizen locals. That's a big deal. In a wealthy suburban country not-so-much.  You would figure that cities like Detroit, Cleveland, Scranton, Buffalo  etc would have a gig-net-gain from a data-center ... as long as it supplies its own water and power.
