Is the FCC's bureaucracy falling behind

As the pace of technical innovation and video and broadband expansion bumps up against the finite amount of radio spectrum, the FCC's regulatory workload is also expanding both in complexity and quantity. A short list of FCC managed stuff include the upcoming spectrum auctions, the push back from satellite communications companies and groups against the reassignment of spectrum to terrestrial mobile applications, the post auction repacking, the continuing debate over "net neutrality", the endless parade of normal FCC actions, as well as the FCC's task of permitting the entry of new large corporations such as Alphabet, Amazon and Facebook as potential telecom players. Not too far over the horizon are 4.5 and 5G.
