Local Governments 119" Assembly District February 6 2013 A ’ leceived & Inspecte Julius Genachowski, Chairman @ ; d Federal Communications Commission Q FER 11 2013 445 12th Street, SW 2© Washington, DC 20554 FCC Mail Room Dear Chairman Genachowski: I write today with great urgency asit relates to the FCC license application of "China Mobile." I know this is an issue your staff is now considering. I respectfully urge your agency to deny China Mobile‘s FCC application seeking to provide service between China and the United States, as well as to build facilities on American soil. With an FCC license in—hand, I am concemed that ‘China Mobile‘ would command unprecedented access to both tangible and intangible U.S. infrastructure, particularly as it relates to national security points of interest like Rome Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) in Rome, NY. The AFRL Information Directorate is focused on research and advanced developmentin the cyber domain. I fear facilities like this would bzcome even easier targets for hackers looking to spy on our country or steal our nation‘s intellectual assets and information. Just recently, with the hacking of U.S. newspapers and other corporations by the Chinese, cybersecurity has once again been brought to the forefront of the national security debate. Fortunately, the area I represent here in Upstate, New York is home to a firewall of cybersecurity experts, both private and public, Our local colleges are helping create the nation‘s first cyber army and installations like Rome AFRL are employing them to keep our nation safe and secure from cyber invaders, like the Chinese. Again, 1 respectfully urge your agency to keep.me abreast on the FCC license application of ©China Mobile‘ and hope your team will either work to deny their application or help reassure relevant facilities across the U.S. that they are seeking unprecedented U.S. access for monitored and agreed upon good. Moreover, should you or your staff ever wish to see the cybersecurity firewall I mentioned above, happening right here in the Utica—Rome area, I invite you to call upon me. Please feel free to contact me should you have any questions as it relates to my inquiry and opinion of China Mobile‘s FCC application.
