I think this is kind of dumb. Why on earth should the FCC give a damn if consumers are emailing them about potential interference on the 12GHz band? This just isn't a topic where consumers should get to weigh in. It's a technical question, does the planned mobile usage interfere with SpaceX's usage, I'm sure SpaceX and Dish both have highly technical teams capable of putting forward the required studies to come to an answer. The FCC should consider the evidence, not listen to uninformed correspondence whipped up by SpaceX.

Consumer pressure would help to ensure that the FCC understands that people are paying attention to this decision so they should make sure they are confident in their analysis of the evidence. It's Friday before a long weekend, so I have my rose-tinted glasses on.

The FCC has screwed up this exact thing (repurposing satellite frequencies for terrestrial 5G) before, see Ligado né LightSquared.
