I covered tech and biz for the Post, both before and after Bezos bought the paper. Not once did an editor have my Amazon stories killed, nor edited to reflect more positively (or negatively!) on the company. Pre- and post-Bezos, the work I did was the same. Just my experience. — PolitiTweet.org

My commute home last night was spent listening to @JHWeissmann’s really fun interview with a worldbuilder for Magic: The Gathering, which of course meant I lost the following three hours to MTG Arena https://t.co/O8BGkmVTqU — PolitiTweet.org

IHS is out with an interesting (for nerds) teardown report looking at 6 different 5G smartphones. Some highlights: The vast majority use Qualcomm chipsets (shocker). Also, most of the phones rely on one 5G modem, and then a separate one for 3G/4G. https://t.co/4M2sAu1r63 — PolitiTweet.org

I ran the numbers. Collectively, the states and the District represent roughly 44 percent of the U.S. by population, per https://t.co/B0cZ7juvAR’s July 2018 estimates. That’s a lot of potential lost business if the deal can’t go through in those regions. https://t.co/yVvzInFf5Z — PolitiTweet.org

Remanding to the FCC means the agency will have a chance to rewrite the rules and try again. But it seems the court wants more evidence that 5G small cells are actually fine, and I’m not sure what substantively the FCC could say that enviros and historicos would not object to? — PolitiTweet.org

Interesting court decision today involving 5G and the FCC. If I’m reading this right, the DC Circuit is saying the FCC erred in trying to exempt 5G small cells from environmental and historic preservation review. https://t.co/P3cda35tia https://t.co/djANqbT6yu — PolitiTweet.org

If you asked Equifax for $125 and regret your choice because it now turns out that the payment will be much smaller, you’re going to have a chance to change your choice to the free credit monitoring that the FTC’s been pushing all week: https://t.co/LPoqEvJBGG — PolitiTweet.org
