    What’s stopping the FCC or your country’s equivalent from locking down HAM regulations?

      That’s an interesting one actually. If they licked down HAM regulations, they’d lose their relief valve/last line of defense.

      It’s not that some idiotic government couldn’t do it, but if they did then they’d lose what control they currently have AND be totally screwed of anything went wrong.

        You’re not making a single point for why trump wouldn’t do this on a whim because some corporate asshole smiled at him and praised him.
