Light Squared technology might cause issues?

A com­pa­ny called light squared that hopes to devel­op a nation­wide Cell phone net­work might cause prob­lems with GPS?

The real issue here, is not that the 4G cell phone sig­nals might cause Nation­al Secu­ri­ty issue, they seem to have for­got­ten the obvi­ous 800 lb goril­la in the room, and that is if there is a weak­ness in the Nation­al Secu­ri­ty involv­ing GPS sig­nals then should the real sto­ry not be that weak­ness and how to fix the prob­lem?

There seems to be a typ­i­cal polit­i­cal prob­lem here, this sto­ry first came out when it was alleged­ly leaked that a high rank­ing offi­cial alleged­ly stat­ed that some­one attempt­ed to get him to bias (alleged­ly) his tes­ti­mo­ny con­cern­ing tech­nol­o­gy that “might” cause some issues with our abil­i­ty to defend our nation.

Now that would seem to be a huge issue but is it real­ly that way or is it some­thing that would need to be adjust­ed, after all if we are so tech­no­log­i­cal­ly weak as to be wor­ried about cell phones caus­ing a prob­lem with Nation­al Defense then should we not be find­ing a method of fix­ing that prob­lem?

With the use of dig­i­tal sig­nals the prob­a­bil­i­ty that cer­tain sig­nals might cause issues is one that we need to be look­ing at hard.

If there is a prob­lem we need to fix it and if this com­pa­ny is part of that prob­lem then should they not be con­cerned enough that they make moves to alter their sig­nal usage?

It only makes com­mon sense that there should be a method of alter­ing sig­nals and that would only be com­mon sense.
