Federal Communications Commission

The US Senate has confirmed Trump nominee Nathan Simington to a five-year term at the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) with a 49-46 vote. Simington is a proponent of repealing Section 230, the law that protects internet companies, such as Twitter and Amazon, from being liable for things posted by users.

The United States Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has approved a request from Amazon to launch 3,236 communication sattelites into low earth orbit.
The company plans to provide a low-latency, high-speed satellite-based internet connections to United States households with it's Project Kuiper. Amazon has announced that it will invest over $10 billtion into the project and will build a supporting infrastructure on the ground in addition to launching the satellites.
With Project Kuiper Amazon goes into direct competition to the Starlink network by SpaceX that aims towards the same goals.

SpaceX's Starlink network of low-Earth orbit small satellites plans to compete for the rural broadband funding, a $16 billion federal funding auction. To qualify for the auction the FCC requires that participants demonstrate latency under 100 milliseconds until July 15.
On a public notice released on June 11, the FCC stated it had "serious doubts that any low-Earth orbit networks will be able to meet the short-form application requirements for bidding in the low-latency tier".
SpaceX's announces it could have latencies around 20 milliseconds.
