โWhen Chancellor Heinrich Brรผningโs government declared a long bank holiday on July 13, 1931, after a run on the banks following the collapse of the Darmstรคdter and Nationalbank, the economic crisis began to hit home. There was a โ9% salary reductionโ for civil servants [..] and higher value-added taxes for consumers"

Delete! Delete! Delete! The FCC asked what regulations should be deleted from its books. Is it good for broadcast radio? Bad for hams? What would we delete?

Can deregulation save radio?
The FCC wants to "create prosperity through deregulation". What does that mean, for brodcasters, for amateur radio, and for RF enthusiasts in general?Mention...YouTube
I would restore the regulations on local ownership. The internet operates on scale and Radio could still fill in the need for local interest.
Otherwise the internet is a more efficient carrier of national topics.

Rosie, my cat from forty years ago!
Her favorite toy was the red super-bouncy ball from a game of Jacks.
She'd fetch it when I would throw it, and then aggressively yell for me to throw it again. Dozens and dozens of times!
I'd get tired before she ever did.

I often get more than a few people who message me about this site, so I thought to make a public post, that I can reference if needed in the future.
The site is owned by one of the previous co-founders of the Pirate Bay. The homepage claims, Costa Rica, but the documentation claims keep changing (at one time, it read, Nigeria), while the site is hosted in Sweden, and the owner is daring people to shut them down, just like they did with the Pirate Bay. njal.la/blog
I do not take this company seriously, and neither should anyone else.
Although their homepage reads, Costa Rica, even Wikipedia notes, Sweden at the moment. And, of course, you can learn about their association with the Pirate Bay. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Njalla
While the goal of the project is to find and list providers outside Us Jurisdiction, I would like to stick to providers that are well established and can overall be trusted. Arguably, anyone, can lease (rent) a web server, and manage their own VPN. If you have the skills, you do not actually need a VPN Provider, and technically, you could offer VPN services to others. But I am not looking to make a list of every "random" who has done so. And of the well known businesses that we may add, I want them to be generally respected and trustworthy.
I am not necessarily to trying to be the moral and ethics police, here, but I do want to know the providers recommended appear to have a likely long-term future with mostly satisfied customers.

in reply to jackhutton ๐บ๐ธ • • •Remember, Biden handed over a strong, burgeoning, enviable economy to Trump in January. And in 3 short months, Trump - Musk - Heritage have fired civil servants, prices up, tariffs are taxes on consumers. It feels sinister.
