They want to auction your free TV and give it to Apple and Verizon.
"Genachowski said the incentive auction would allow for a mechanism to
"unleash the value of that spectrum for broadband." He said given that
pressing need, "how can we justify shielding broadcast spectrum from
market forces?"
Calling for Congress to take action, he said: "It's time to take the
necessary steps to ensure that spectrum will be the great enabler of
mobile innovation in the 21st century, not a chokepoint."
