What does the FCC do exactly?
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is the U.S. government agency that regulates communications by radio, television, wire, satellite, and cables across the United States. It seeks to advance competition, drive innovation, and safeguard public safety by allocating spectrum, enforcing compliance, ensuring widespread broadband availability, and supervising media content and fairness standards—in essence, overseeing the nation’s information and signal infrastructure.
