Will regulators put more caps on 5G spectrum ownership?

Just days before Federal Communications Commission Chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel announced plans to reinstate some net neutrality guidelines, the FCC also opened a proceeding into the spectrum screen. The move could reflect the fact that Rosenworcel now believes she has enough political clout to impose limits on 5G spectrum ownership via the agency's spectrum screen. After all, Democratic commissioners now outnumber Republicans after the Senate finally approved Democrat Anna Gomez as the fifth commissioner on the FCC. That development paved the way for Rosenworcel to reopen the net neutrality debate.  A renewed look at the FCC's spectrum screen could potentially affect 5G network operators like T-Mobile by limiting the amount of spectrum they can put into their networks. More broadly, it could also affect the cell tower operators and the equipment vendors that would be charged with putting that spectrum into action.
