The tl;dr: As stated in the host's predictions section of the video, over the air (OTA) TV in the US will cease to exist and the spectrum sold off to the highest bidder. A completely avoidable situation, but #DRM and #patents will end up killing something that Americans have taken for granted since the 1950s. #NextGenTV https://youtu.be/sQVb62Cn_t8
Due to the non-magic of my filing two longer pieces earlier and then having two stories break hours apart in the same morning, Wednesday saw more than 3,200 words appear under my byline at two different sites.
Patreon readers got one extra post this week, my recap of what I learned at VidCon from YouTubers, streamers and other content creators without boldface names about making a living and making their way through that industry.
6/26/2024: 1Password CEO on why good online security doesn’t have to be complicated, Fast Company
Jeff Shiner has somehow become the tech CEO I interview at least once a year–for PCMag in 2022, onstage at Web Summit Rio in 2023, and now for Fast Company after a conversation we had at Collision in Toronto.
6/26/2024: Your TV Probably Has a ‘NextGen’ Perk You’ve Never Heard Of, PCMag
The conference at which I did most of this reporting happened two weeks ago, but then being out of town the week after got in the way of my writing it even as I realized I needed a few more details to fill out the story.
6/26/2024: Cheap Netflix? Verizon Adds Streaming Bundles to Home Broadband Plans, PCMag
I had figured that somebody on staff would cover this news, but instead one of my editors asked if I could field it. With some work on our house to be paid off, I quickly said yes, then I realized I could bring another angle to the story by covering a recent stealth rate hike on Fios plans such as my own.
6/26/2024: Supreme Court: The Feds Can Tell Social Media Platforms to Enforce Their Rules, PCMag
The piece that I wrote for The New Republic last summer, in which multiple First Amendment issues critiqued the profound unseriousness of the ruling that kicked off this case, held up very well.
6/28/2024: Could 5G carriers ink a spectrum deal with TV broadcasters?, Light Reading
The other piece that I wrote from the NextGen conference took almost as long to write, with my last interview for it happening the day I got home from Toronto and the last e-mailed response coming Monday..
6/29/2024: Twitter Influencers: The Money Is Terrible, But We’re Not Going Anywhere, PCMag
Looking over the VidCon schedule in advance, this panel seemed the most likely one to yield a story. It did not disappoint, even I was a little disappointed to see that none of the panelists showed any interest in exploring alternatives to Twitter (none of them called it “X” onstage) for their short-form social output.
6/29/2024: White House Social Team Is Fighting the Algorithms Just Like the Rest of Us, PCMag
The journalist who sat next to me at a press breakfast Panasonic hosted Wednesday suggested I check out this panel, and she was not wrong.
I filed my last copy for this week at 10 p.m. Friday, and then it was a delight to have Saturday be my first legit work-free day since… um, Jan. 1.
1/16/2024: Don’t Engage: ‘Pig Butchering’ Scams Start With a Text, End in Financial Ruin, PCMag
One reason I couldn’t unplug from work last Sunday: I had to watch my friend Sean Gallagher’s very good walkthrough of pig-butchering scams at the ShmooCon information-security conference in D.C. I did, however, opt to watch the livestream of his talk that morning instead of heading over to the Washington Hilton for the third day in a row.
1/17/2024: NextGen TV Airwave Upgrade Flies Under the Radar at CES, PCMag
This CES recap ran several days after the show ended because I needed to verify some Consumer Technology Association forecasts of sales of NextGen-equipped TV sets. And because I needed some uninterrupted time to finish writing the thing.
1/19/2024: Biden Admin OKs $150 Million in Grants to Fix Broken Public EV Chargers, PCMag
I spent Thursday afternoon at the Washington Auto Show’s public-policy day and came away with this update on the Biden administration’s latest efforts to ease electric-car adoption, in which I also noted how the White House’s plan to underwrite a nationwide network of fast chargers on highways has yet to yield much usable hardware. I ended the post by calling out ignorant remarks by two Republican congressmen on a panel that afternoon in which they characterized EVs as some sort of big-government plot.
1/19/2024: Ep 96 SmartTechCheck Podcast CES 2024 Recap, Mark Vena
I joined my industry-analyst friend’s podcast to compare notes about CES with Mark and my fellow tech scribe Stewart Wolpin–who drew on his deep knowledge of the business with a recap of the slow and halting adoption of color TV when our host asked about bumps in the road to EV adoption.
#NextGenTV--aka "ATSC 3.0"--has some intriguing potential and already delivers notable upgrades over the ATSC 1.0 digital-broadcast standard we've had for 25+ years. But hardware support remains inconsistent, stations encrypting their broadcasts can complicate using add-on-tuners, and the retail presentation of NextGen-compatible TVs is often left as an exercise to the shopper. https://www.pcmag.com/news/nextgen-tv-airwave-upgrade-flies-under-the-radar-at-ces
C21 hat das Next Gen Creator Festival angekündigt, um neue Inhalte und Gemeinschaften zu feiern und Partnerschaften mit traditionellem Fernsehen aufzubauen.

This is pretty outrageous that the FCC is basically selling out antenna broadcast TV.

ATSC 3.0 TV Sets Won’t Decode DRM Encrypted Channels - YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nClxgUunmeE
Potential good news for Part 15 compliant broadcasters on the AM & FM broadcast bands, studio construction precautions, #NEXTGENTV tuners and passenger successfully lands airplane among today's forum topics #Part15Radio #LPAM #radio #broadcasting https://www.hobbybroadcaster.net/community/
Interesting. Thanks for posting this.
So, looks like all the major broadcasters, except CW, launched at once:

Maybe it's my imagination, but this Super Bowl looks fabulous on ATSC 3.0.
I’m not watching the same Fox Super Bowl pregame as most of you—instead, I’ve tuned into the #NextGenTV (aka ATSC 3.0) over-the-air signal of D.C.’s WTTG using a ZapperBox M1 tuner. One notable upgrade from this station’s regular (ATSC 1.0) digital broadcast: The 3.0 version is in 1080p resolution, up from 720p on the 1.0 signal.
