'Doubt the FCC would approve of a Chinese company owning more than 25% considering their take on Huawei and you clearly didn't read the article. Canada, Australia, Germany and the Cayman Islands.'

Remember, 'creative accounting' can do wonders - and an election year is coming up, and not that it matters in this news but TT is on the President’s National Infrastructure Advisory Council.

Deal with it, it will happen - China owned or another foreign country, it will get passed. The FCC will also get a 'kickback' on this.

Canada would make sense since there are Canadian sites and employees.
