FCC Chairman Brendan Carr on Jan. 14, 2026 criticized Amazon for opposing SpaceX's application to launch up to 1 million low‑Earth‑orbit satellites as orbital data centers, noting Amazon will fall roughly 1,000 satellites short of an upcoming deployment milestone. Amazon has requested a 24‑month extension to meet a July 2026 deadline for about 1,600 satellites; the dispute spotlights competition with Starlink and debris concerns.
