A key group of Trump administration officials now formally opposes an effort involving Google and Facebook to activate an underwater cable network connecting the U.S. to Hong Kong

A key group of Trump administration officials now formally opposes an effort involving Google and Facebook to activate an underwater cable network connecting the United States to Hong Kong.

The Federal Communications Commission will ultimately decide whether to allow Pacific Light’s operations, but members of the independent agency frequently defer to the Justice Department and other administration officials on national security matters. The administration considers such concerns as part of an inter-agency body known as “Team Telecom."

Meanwhile, Facebook and Google appear to have all but conceded that they won’t be able to operationalize the leg linking the U.S. and Hong Kong.
