Been a busy week at the FCC! A task force is being created to get more accurate measurements on broadband, and new subsidies are being drafted to help people struggling to pay for internet access.

And playing around with a Motorola Ace 5G, can Moto make a Nord killer?

Let’s get your tech week started right!
