AWS invests $50B in federal AI infrastructure

AWS invests $50B in federal AI infrastructure
Amazon Web Services plans a sweeping expansion of classified and government cloud capacity to accelerate AI and high‑performance computing for U.S. agencies. AWS will invest up to $50 billion starting in 2026 to deliver purpose‑built AI and HPC infrastructure for federal customers. The buildout spans AWS Top Secret, AWS Secret, and AWS GovCloud (US) Regions. The expansion is designed to compress analysis timelines and enable AI‑assisted workflows across national security and civil missions. AWS is making a generational bet that AI and HPC, delivered inside accredited government regions at massive scale, will redefine how federal missions operate.

FCC targets HKT: Section 214 revocation risk

FCC targets HKT: Section 214 revocation risk
The U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has opened a proceeding to revoke HKT International’s Section 214 authorizations, citing national security concerns tied to its affiliations and the evolving U.S.–China risk posture. Section 214 authority is the gatekeeper for carriers to originate, terminate, or carry traffic that touches the U.S., including wholesale voice, IP transit, subsea capacity backhaul, and certain enterprise connectivity. Over the past five years, the FCC—often in coordination with the interagency “Team Telecom” group (DOJ, DHS, DOD)—has revoked or denied comparable permissions for China Telecom (Americas), China Unicom (Americas), and Pacific Networks/ComNet, among others, after similar “order to show cause” phases. The next 60–120 days could reshape interconnection routes, roaming relationships, and wholesale arrangements touching Hong Kong-to-U.S. traffic paths.

Pentagon CIO backs national spectrum sharing demos

Pentagon CIO backs national spectrum sharing demos
The Department of Defense and the National Spectrum Consortium (NSC) are moving five industry-academia teams into field demonstrations to validate dynamic spectrum coexistence between defense systems and commercial networks. The focus is practical: prove that military radar, weapons systems, and electronic sensors can operate alongside commercial 5G/6G-class networks in the same bands without harmful interference. Experiments are slated to begin as early as November, with results feeding a follow-on study on dynamic spectrum operations mandated by the 2023 National Spectrum Strategy.

FCC Spectrum: Protect CBRS and 6 GHz

FCC Spectrum: Protect CBRS and 6 GHz
With the FCC under pressure to deliver 300 MHz of auctionable spectrum, a group of Senate Republicans is urging the agency to preserve the shared 3.5 GHz CBRS band and the unlicensed 6 GHz band that underpin private 5G and next‑gen Wi‑Fi. Ten Senate Republicans, including five members of the Senate Commerce Committee, sent a letter urging the FCC to ensure existing operations in the 6 GHz and Citizens Broadband Radio Service (CBRS) bands continue “without disruption.” NTIA Administrator Arielle Roth called for preserving 6 GHz for Wi‑Fi, a stance applauded by NCTA as a recognition that unlicensed spectrum is an economic engine.
