Yeah, certainly, and a license for Wi-Fi, we can't have have the hoi polloi wandering around polluting that limited spectrum with their $10 access points and we'd better do something about that report that shows that LPFM (low power FM) broadcasting at 100watts isn't going to cripple all the 50KW clear channel signals, despite the report that Congress reluctantly included and the FCC sat on, and the Amherst Alliance has forced the release of, the MITRE report, a document that was two years late from its congressional deadline of Febuary 1, 2001. After learning this report was finished but not being published, the Amherst Alliance filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) petition to retrieve it. The FCC was very reluctant (or lazy) to release it, and was far past the FOIA deadline. But after pressure from the Amherst Alliance, the report has finally been released.
Yeah, what you Americans need is more licensing and regulation to ensure the status quo.
