[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3230774, member: 5412"] President Donald Trump said the US government won't build a nationalized wholesale 5G network, but it's promising more spectrum and a new fund to ensure the country's dominance in the next-generation wireless technology. "In the United States, our approach is private sector-driven and private sector-led," he said at a press conference Friday announcing his administration's plans to advance [URL='https://www.cnet.com/news/5g-is-live-and-real-if-you-can-find-it/']5G deployment[/URL]. "As you probably heard, we had another alternative of doing it that would be through government investment and leading through the government," he continued. "We don't want to do that because it won't be nearly as good, nearly as fast." The notion of the government's potential involvement in building the network surfaced in January 2018 when White House [URL='https://www.cnet.com/news/trumps-crazy-5g-plan-diagnoses-real-problem-cybersecurity-threat/']plans for the idea leaked out[/URL]. Several officials, including FCC Chairman Ajit Pai, who was appointed chairman by Trump, and Trump economic advisor Larry Kudlow, have opposed the idea. But others, such as former Republican Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich and Trump's 2020 campaign manager Brad Parscale, have reportedly favored more government involvement. CTIA, the wireless industry's lobbying group, said it was about time the speculation around a government-funded 5G network was put to rest. "Today's statement by the president puts an end -- once and for all -- to any misguided notions of nationalizing spectrum resources or government-mandated wholesale 5G markets," CTIA president and CEO Meredith Attwell Baker said in a statement. "We agree with the administration and the FCC that bringing next-generation wireless networks to more Americans is critical."
