−Removed: The Company uses and periodically adjusts a diverse mix

−Removed: Significant increases in the pricing of one or more of the Company’s

+Added: As of December 31, 2025,

+Added: the amounts payable to the purchaser of discontinued operations and income taxes payable), of which $32,203,548 was paid to the stockholders
+Added: who tendered their shares in the Tender Offer.
+Added: There can be no assurance that we will continue to generate income in the future or that
+Added: the income will be significant.
+Added: We may need to raise
+Added: additional capital to acquire companies in complementary and high-growth technology sectors and there can be no assurance that we will
+Added: be successful in doing so.
+Added: We expect our expenses to
+Added: increase in connection with our anticipated acquisition activities.
+Added: For the foreseeable future we will have to fund all of our operations
+Added: and capital expenditures from revenue generated from operations and equity and debt offerings and cash on hand.
+Added: We may need to raise additional
+Added: capital to fund our acquisitions, and we cannot be certain that funding will be available on acceptable terms on a timely basis, or at
+Added: To the extent that we raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, our stockholders may experience significant dilution.
+Added: Any debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants that may impact our ability to conduct our business and also have
+Added: a dilutive effect on our stockholders.
+Added: We currently do not have any commitment for funding.
+Added: Our ability to raise capital through the sale
+Added: of securities may be limited by the rules of the SEC and Nasdaq that place limits on the number and dollar amount of securities that may
+Added: There can be no assurances that we will be able to raise the funds needed, especially in light of the fact that our ability to
+Added: sell securities registered on our registration statement on Form S-3 will be limited until such time the market value of our voting securities
+Added: held by non-affiliates is $75 million or more.
+Added: Our strategic pivot
+Added: following the sale of the CloudFirst business, including our plan to deploy a substantial portion of the remaining sale proceeds toward
+Added: acquiring companies in high-growth sectors such as artificial intelligence and cybersecurity, exposes us to substantial execution, integration,
+Added: and regulatory and tax-related risks that could adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
+Added: We have recently completed
+Added: the sale of our CloudFirst business and intend to use a portion of the remaining sale proceeds to pursue acquisitions in high-growth sectors,
+Added: including artificial intelligence and cybersecurity.
+Added: This strategic shift represents a significant change in our operating focus and risk
+Added: profile and subjects us to a number of uncertainties that could materially adversely affect our business.
+Added: Our ability to successfully
+Added: execute this strategy depends on identifying suitable acquisition targets, completing transactions on acceptable terms, and effectively
+Added: integrating acquired businesses.
+Added: Companies operating in artificial intelligence and cybersecurity are often characterized by rapid technological
+Added: change, intense competition, significant research and development expenditures, evolving regulatory frameworks, and reliance on highly
+Added: skilled personnel.
+Added: We may face challenges integrating acquired operations, technologies, and personnel, realizing anticipated synergies,
+Added: retaining key employees, and aligning differing business models, compliance practices, or corporate cultures.
+Added: Failure to address these
+Added: challenges could result in higher-than-expected costs, operational disruptions, or an inability to achieve anticipated strategic or financial
+Added: In addition, our acquisition
+Added: strategy may expose us to greater sensitivity to changes in U.S.
+Added: tax laws and regulations, including the One, Big, Beautiful Bill Act
+Added: and future legislative, regulatory, or interpretive developments.
+Added: Many artificial intelligence and cybersecurity companies incur significant
+Added: research and development expenses and may rely on tax attributes, deductions, or incentives in their operating and financial planning.
+Added: Changes in the timing, availability, or interpretation of tax benefits, as well as uncertainty regarding their application to acquired
+Added: businesses, could adversely affect the valuation of potential acquisition targets, the accounting treatment of completed acquisitions,
+Added: our effective tax rate, cash flows, or the expected returns on invested capital.
+Added: Assumptions about tax treatment that prove incorrect
+Added: or change over time could result in earnings volatility, the remeasurement or impairment of deferred tax assets, or reduced operating
+Added: Further, the redeployment
+Added: of divestiture proceeds into acquisitions reduces our financial flexibility and increases our exposure to risks associated with capital
+Added: allocation decisions.
+Added: If we are unable to complete acquisitions that perform as expected, or if market, regulatory, economic, or tax conditions
+Added: change, we may be unable to fully replace the revenues, cash flows, or profitability associated with the divested business.
+Added: stock price could be adversely affected if investors perceive that our post-divestiture strategy, including our focus on acquisitions
+Added: in high-growth and technology-driven sectors, entails greater risk or uncertainty than our prior business model.
+Added: We have identified
+Added: a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, which could adversely affect our ability to report our financial
+Added: results accurately and in a timely manner.
+Added: In connection with the preparation of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for
+Added: the quarter ended September 30, 2025, we identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting.
+Added: weakness relates to the design and execution of controls over the accounting and disclosure of significant and unusual transactions, arising
+Added: from the divestiture of a material portion of our business.
+Added: Specifically, the deficient controls related to the analysis used in the financial
+Added: reporting process and related income tax implications of the divestiture.
+Added: In addition, in connection with the preparation of our consolidated
+Added: financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, management identified an error in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the
+Added: quarter ended September 30, 2025 that also related to the accounting and disclosure of the same significant and unusual transactions (the
+Added: divestiture of a material portion of our business), specifically the accounting for the reclassification of the July 2021 Warrants from
+Added: equity to a liability.
+Added: Accordingly, we have corrected the prior period financial statements in a restatement to reflect the initial recognition
+Added: of the warrant as a debit to equity, with subsequent changes in the fair value of the liability recognized in the consolidated statements
+Added: of operations.
+Added: This weakness was identified in connection with the divestiture of a material portion of our business that occurred late
+Added: in the third quarter of fiscal 2025.
+Added: The weakness has not yet been remediated.
+Added: A material weakness is a
+Added: deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility
+Added: that a material misstatement of our financial statements would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
+Added: Although we are actively
+Added: implementing a remediation plan, including enhancing internal review procedures and engaging appropriate internal and external resources,
+Added: the material weakness has not yet been fully remediated.
+Added: If our internal control over
+Added: financial reporting or our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective, we may not be able to accurately report our financial
+Added: results, prevent fraud, or file our periodic reports in a timely manner, which may cause investors to lose confidence in our reported
+Added: financial information and may lead to a decline in our stock price.
+Added: Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal
+Added: control over our financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a- 15(f) under the Exchange Act.
+Added: Management plans to fully remediate the identified
+Added: material weakness in internal controls, however, there can be no assurance that the internal control over financial reporting, as modified,
+Added: will enable us to identify or avoid material weaknesses in the future.
+Added: In addition, the material weakness will not be considered remediated
+Added: until the applicable controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls
+Added: are designed and operating effectively.
+Added: We can give no assurance
+Added: that additional material weaknesses will not be identified in the future.
+Added: Our failure to implement and maintain effective internal controls
+Added: over financial reporting could result in errors in our consolidated financial statements that could result in a restatement of our financial
+Added: statements and could cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations, any of which could diminish investor confidence in the Company
+Added: and cause a decline in the price of our Common Stock.
+Added: A shutdown of the U.S.
+Added: federal government may adversely affect our business.
+Added: The current partial shutdown,
+Added: or a recurring shutdown, of the U.S.
+Added: federal government may adversely affect our business operations and regulatory compliance.
+Added: February 14, 2026, the U.S.
+Added: federal government has been operating under a partial shutdown resulting from a lapse in appropriations for
+Added: the Department of Homeland Security (“DHS”), while other federal agencies remain funded.
+Added: As a result, certain DHS-related
+Added: services and activities have been disrupted or delayed, including staffing and operations at agencies such as the Transportation Security
+Added: Administration and the Federal Emergency Management Agency, and related third-party functions on which we may indirectly rely.
+Added: More broadly,
+Added: the shutdown has contributed to market volatility, operational inefficiencies and economic uncertainty, including disruptions to travel
+Added: and commerce.
+Added: If the shutdown continues or expands, or if future funding lapses occur, additional federal agency operations or regulatory
+Added: activities could be suspended or delayed, which could adversely affect our operations, access to capital, business plans and the market
+Added: price and liquidity of our securities.
+Added: The duration and ultimate impact of the current shutdown are uncertain and beyond our control.
+Added: During shutdowns of the U.S.
+Added: federal government, while the SEC’s EDGAR system remains operational, the potential unavailability of SEC staff to review filings,
+Added: issue comments, or declare registration statements effective may delay our ability to complete public offerings, respond to comment letters,
+Added: or obtain timely regulatory approvals.
+Added: These delays could impact our access to capital markets, hinder strategic transactions, and create
+Added: uncertainty around our disclosure obligations.
+Added: Additionally, the lack of interpretive guidance or exemptive relief during a shutdown may
+Added: increase legal and compliance risks.
+Added: There can be no assurance that future shutdowns will not materially affect our operations or financial
+Added: There is uncertainty
+Added: regarding our future business strategy, which could affect our financial condition and prospects.
+Added: Following the sale of the CloudFirst business, we have not yet determined our future
+Added: strategic direction.
+Added: We may pursue acquisitions, joint ventures, minority investments, or alternative business opportunities, but there
+Added: is no assurance that any such opportunities will be identified, evaluated, or completed on favorable terms—or at all.
+Added: our ability to locate suitable acquisitions is limited to businesses complementary to our current business.
+Added: Until a new strategy is established,
+Added: investors have limited visibility regarding our future operations, business model, and long-term prospects.
+Added: We will rely on our cash on
+Added: hand of approximately $9.6 million as of April 14, 2026, together with revenue generated by Nexxis, to fund our ongoing corporate functions,
+Added: evaluate strategic alternatives, and seek acquisition opportunities.
+Added: These funds may not be sufficient to cover our expenses over an extended
+Added: period, particularly if the search for a suitable acquisition or strategic alternative is prolonged.
+Added: We may need to raise additional capital,
+Added: which may not be available on acceptable terms—or at all—and could result in significant dilution to existing stockholders.
+Added: Additionally, if management
+Added: or significant stockholders have interests in businesses that may be considered as potential acquisition targets, conflicts of interest
+Added: could arise in evaluating opportunities.
+Added: These conflicts may lead to acquisitions that are not in the best interests of all stockholders
+Added: or may expose us to litigation or regulatory scrutiny.
+Added: Further, any future acquisition
+Added: or merger may require stockholder approval, regulatory filings, antitrust review, or other governmental consents.
+Added: Obtaining these approvals
+Added: could be costly, time-consuming, and uncertain.
+Added: Stockholders may not approve a proposed transaction, or regulatory agencies could impose
+Added: conditions that diminish the value or feasibility of a combination.
+Added: Failure to complete a strategic transaction could adversely affect
+Added: our financial condition and prospects.
+Added: Our growth may be impacted
+Added: by acquisitions.
+Added: We may not be able to identify suitable acquisition candidates, complete acquisitions or integrate acquisitions successfully.
+Added: Our future growth may depend
+Added: in part on our ability to acquire and successfully integrate new businesses.
+Added: Our Board is actively evaluating multiple strategic alternatives
+Added: for the use of the remaining sale proceeds, which as stated above, include targeted acquisitions in high growth sectors, a reverse merger
+Added: or a hybrid of the foregoing.
+Added: We may not be able to identify suitable acquisition candidates, complete acquisitions, or integrate acquisitions
+Added: successfully.
+Added: In addition, our ability to locate suitable acquisitions is limited to businesses complementary to our current business.
+Added: Acquisitions involve significant risks, including difficulties conducting due diligence, negotiating acceptable terms, integrating acquired
+Added: operations, retaining key employees, and realizing expected synergies.
+Added: Once acquired, operations may not achieve anticipated levels of
+Added: revenues or profitability, we may not experience the anticipated strategic benefits thereof and we may experience difficulties in the
+Added: integration of the operations, technologies, services, and products of the acquired companies and the diversion of management’s
+Added: attention from other business concerns, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of
+Added: Although our management will endeavor to evaluate the risks inherent in any particular transaction, there are no assurances
+Added: that we will properly ascertain all such risks.
+Added: Failure to complete an acquisition could also result in continued operating losses, diminished
+Added: liquidity, or an inability to resume meaningful business operations.
+Added: Completing an acquisition
+Added: in a new industry or market could impair our ability to successfully manage the acquired business.
+Added: If we complete an acquisition
+Added: in an industry or market in which we have limited or no prior operating experience, we may encounter significant challenges that could
+Added: adversely affect our ability to operate the acquired business successfully.
+Added: Entering a new industry may require us to navigate unfamiliar
+Added: regulatory frameworks, licensing requirements, and compliance obligations.
+Added: Failure to understand or properly implement industry-specific
+Added: compliance programs could result in fines, penalties, operational delays, or restrictions on our ability to conduct business.
+Added: We may also lack the subject-matter
+Added: expertise necessary to effectively evaluate competitive dynamics, customer behavior, technological standards, and economic drivers within
+Added: a new market.
+Added: Assumptions that management makes during its evaluation of a potential acquisition may ultimately prove inaccurate, resulting
+Added: in unanticipated operating costs, lower-than-expected revenue, or the failure of the acquired business to achieve projected performance.
+Added: In addition, we may face difficulties identifying, recruiting, and retaining personnel with the specialized skills needed to operate in
+Added: a new sector.
+Added: Competition for experienced executives and technical professionals can be intense, and we may be required to offer compensation
+Added: packages that significantly increase our cost structure.
+Added: Operational risks may also
+Added: arise if we implement systems, controls, or processes that are poorly suited to the requirements of the new industry.
+Added: We may need to invest
+Added: substantial resources to upgrade its internal infrastructure, enhance information technology systems, or implement new operational procedures,
+Added: all of which may be costly and time-consuming.
+Added: Integration risks—including cultural differences, incompatible processes, and differing
+Added: risk management frameworks—may be heightened when combining our legacy corporate structure with a business that operates in a regulated
+Added: or technically complex environment.
+Added: Because investors may value
+Added: us based on expectations about its ability to successfully transition into a new business line, any delay in executing a new business
+Added: plan or any underperformance of an acquired business may result in significant volatility or a decline in the trading price of our securities.
+Added: There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully enter or operate in a new industry or achieve the expected benefits of
+Added: any acquisition.
+Added: Upon exercise of our
+Added: outstanding options or warrants, we will be obligated to issue a substantial number of additional shares of Common Stock which will dilute
+Added: its present shareholders.
+Added: We are obligated to issue
+Added: additional shares of Common Stock in connection with any exercise or conversion, as applicable, of our outstanding options, warrants,
+Added: and shares of our convertible preferred stock.
+Added: The exercise of warrants or options will cause us to issue additional shares of Common
+Added: Stock and will dilute the percentage ownership of our shareholders.
+Added: In addition, we have in the past, and may in the future, exchange
+Added: outstanding securities for other securities on terms that are dilutive to the securities held by other shareholders not participating
+Added: in such an exchange.
+Added: We may be the target
+Added: of securities class action and derivative lawsuits which could result in substantial costs.
+Added: Securities class action lawsuits
+Added: and derivative lawsuits are often brought against companies that have entered into agreements similar to the sale of our CloudFirst business
+Added: involving a sale of a line of business or other business combinations.
+Added: In addition, we may be subject to private actions, collective actions,
+Added: investigations, and various other legal proceedings by shareholders, customers, employees, competitors, government agencies, or others.
+Added: Even if the lawsuits are without merit, defending against these claims can result in substantial costs, damage to our reputation, and
+Added: divert significant amounts of management time and resources.
+Added: If any of these legal proceedings were to be determined adversely to us,
+Added: or we were to enter into a settlement arrangement, we could be exposed to monetary damages or limits on our ability to operate our business,
+Added: which could have an adverse effect on our business, liquidity financial condition, and operating results.
+Added: As of the date of this
+Added: Annual Report, we are not aware of any securities class action lawsuits or derivative lawsuits having been filed in connection with the
+Added: sale of our CloudFirst business.
+Added: If Nexxis is unable
+Added: to attract new customers on a cost-effective basis, its revenue and operating results would be adversely affected.
+Added: We have historically generated the majority of our revenue from the sale of
+Added: subscriptions to our infrastructure and disaster recovery/cloud solutions as well as contracted managed services and software and hardware
+Added: Following the sale of the CloudFirst business and prior to consummating planned acquisitions and/or entering into other strategic
+Added: initiatives, all of our revenue has been generated from Nexxis’ customers.
+Added: If Nexxis is unable to attract new customers on a cost-effective
+Added: basis, its revenue and operating results, and therefore our revenue and operating results, would be adversely affected.
+Added: Nexxis uses and
+Added: periodically adjusts a diverse mix of advertising and marketing programs to promote its solutions.
+Added: Significant increases in the pricing
+Added: of one or more of Nexxis’ advertising channels would increase its advertising costs or cause it to choose less expensive and perhaps
+Added: fewer effective channels.
+Added: As Nexxis adds to or changes the mix of its advertising and marketing strategies, it may expand into channels
+Added: with significantly higher costs than its current programs, which could adversely affect its operating results.
+Added: Nexxis may incur advertising
+Added: and marketing expenses significantly in advance of the time it anticipates recognizing any revenue generated by such expenses, and it
+Added: may only at a later date, or never, experience an increase in revenue or brand awareness as a result of such expenditures.
+Added: Additionally,
+Added: because Nexxis recognizes revenue from customers over the terms of their subscriptions, a sizeable portion of its revenue for each quarter
+Added: reflects deferred revenue from subscriptions entered into during previous quarters, and downturns or upturns in subscription sales or
+Added: renewals may not be reflected in our operating results until later periods.
+Added: Nexxis has made in the past, and may make, in the future,
+Added: significant investments to test new advertising, and there can be no assurance that any such investments will lead to the cost-effective
+Added: acquisition of additional customers.
+Added: If Nexxis is unable to maintain effective advertising programs, its ability to attract new customers
+Added: could be adversely affected, its advertising and marketing expenses could increase substantially, and its operating results may suffer.

−Removed: Though the Company continues to expand its customer base, the Company remains
−Removed: dependent on a limited number of customers for a substantial portion of its revenues.
−Removed: For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company
−Removed: had two customers that each, individually, accounted for 12% of revenue.
−Removed: For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company had two

−Removed: Risks Related to the
−Removed: Company’s Industry
−Removed: The market for cloud
−Removed: solutions is highly competitive, and if the Company does not compete effectively, its operating results will be harmed.
−Removed: The market for the Company’s
−Removed: services is highly competitive, quickly evolving and subject to rapid changes in technology.
−Removed: The Company expects to continue to face intense
−Removed: competition from its existing competitors as well as additional competition from new market entrants in the future as the market for its
−Removed: services continues to grow.
−Removed: The Company competes with
−Removed: cloud backup and infrastructure providers and providers of traditional hardware-based systems and IBM Power Systems.
−Removed: Its current and potential
−Removed: competitors vary by size, service offerings, and geographic region.
−Removed: These competitors may elect to partner with each other or with focused
−Removed: companies to grow their businesses.
−Removed: They include:
−Removed: in-house IT departments of its customers and potential customers;
−Removed: traditional global infrastructure providers, including, but not limited to, large multi-national providers, such as IBM, Microsoft, Google, and Amazon Web Services (AWS);
−Removed: cloud and software service providers and digital systems integrators;
−Removed: regional managed services providers;
−Removed: colocation solutions providers, such as Equinix, Rackspace and TierPoint.
−Removed: Many of these competitors
−Removed: benefit from significant competitive advantages over the Company, given their desire to enter this niche marketplace, such as greater
−Removed: name recognition, longer operating histories, more varied services, and larger marketing budgets, as well as greater financial, technical,
−Removed: and other resources.
−Removed: In addition, many of these competitors have established marketing relationships and major distribution agreements
−Removed: with computer manufacturers, internet service providers, and resellers, giving them access to larger customer bases.
−Removed: Some of these competitors
−Removed: may make acquisitions or enter strategic relationships to offer a more comprehensive service than the Company does.
−Removed: As a result, some
−Removed: of these competitors may be able to:
−Removed: develop superior products or services, gain greater market acceptance, and expand their service offerings more efficiently or more rapidly;
−Removed: adapt to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements more quickly;
−Removed: bundle their offerings, including hosting services with other services they provide at reduced prices;
−Removed: streamline their operational structure, obtain better pricing, or secure more favorable contractual terms, allowing them to deliver services and products at a lower cost;
−Removed: take advantage of acquisition, joint ventures, and other opportunities more readily;
−Removed: adopt more aggressive pricing policies and devote greater resources to the promotion, marketing, and sales of their services, which could cause us to have to lower prices for certain services to remain competitive in the market;
−Removed: devote greater resources to the research and development of their products and services.
−Removed: In addition, demand for the
−Removed: Company’s cloud solutions is sensitive to price.
−Removed: Many factors, including the Company’s customer acquisition, advertising and
−Removed: technology costs, and its current and future competitors’ pricing and marketing strategies, can significantly affect its pricing
−Removed: Certain of the Company’s competitors offer, or may in the future offer, lower-priced or free solutions that compete
−Removed: with its solutions.
−Removed: Additionally, consolidation
−Removed: activity through strategic mergers, acquisitions and joint ventures may result in new competitors that can offer a broader range of products
−Removed: and services that, may have a greater scale or a lower cost structure.
−Removed: To the extent such consolidation results in the ability of vertically
−Removed: integrated companies to offer more integrated services to customers than the Company can, customers may prefer the single-source approach
−Removed: and direct more business to such competitors, thereby impairing the Company’s competitive position.
−Removed: Furthermore, new entrants not
−Removed: currently considered to be competitors may enter the market through acquisitions, partnerships, or strategic relationships.
−Removed: As the Company
−Removed: looks to market and sell its services to potential customers, the Company must convince its internal stakeholders that the Company’s
−Removed: services are superior to their current solutions.
−Removed: If the Company is unable to anticipate or react to these competitive challenges, its
−Removed: competitive position would weaken, which could adversely affect its business, financial condition, and results of operations.
−Removed: These combinations
−Removed: may make it more difficult for the Company to compete effectively and its inability to compete effectively would negatively impact its
−Removed: operating results.
−Removed: In addition, there can be no assurance that the Company will not be forced to engage in price-cutting initiatives,
−Removed: or to increase its advertising and other expenses to attract and retain customers in response to competitive pressures, either of which
−Removed: could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s revenue and operating results.

+Added: Compliance with these requirements requires ongoing investments in systems, processes, and personnel, and failure to comply could result
+Added: in fines, enforcement actions, or limitations on Nexxis’ ability to offer services.
+Added: In addition, the FCC has
+Added: periodically reconsidered the regulatory classification of broadband internet access services, and future reclassification or the imposition
+Added: of common-carrier-like obligations could subject Nexxis to additional requirements, such as enhanced consumer protection, service quality,
+Added: or pricing-related rules.
+Added: Any such changes could increase Nexxis’ operating costs, reduce its flexibility in managing its network
+Added: or pricing, or require material changes to Nexxis’ business model.
+Added: Nexxis is also subject to
+Added: USF contribution requirements and FCC regulatory fees, the methodologies and rates of which are subject to change.
+Added: Any increase in contribution
+Added: factors, expansion of the contribution base, or changes in reporting or payment requirements could significantly increase Nexxis’
+Added: Nexxis’ ability to recover such costs from customers may be limited by competitive pressures, contractual arrangements, or
+Added: regulatory restrictions.
+Added: At the state and local level,
+Added: public utility commissions and other authorities may impose requirements relating to consumer protection, emergency services, taxation,
+Added: privacy, and data security.
+Added: While federal law generally preempts states from regulating information services as telecommunications services,
+Added: the scope of permissible state regulation continues to evolve, and states may adopt inconsistent or overlapping requirements.
+Added: with a patchwork of state and local regulations could increase administrative burdens and compliance costs and divert management attention.
+Added: Nexxis’ operations
+Added: also involve the collection, transmission, and processing of customer and network data, subjecting it to privacy, data protection, and
+Added: cybersecurity laws at the federal and state levels, which are becoming increasingly comprehensive and stringent.
+Added: Changes in these laws,
+Added: or Nexxis’ failure to comply with them, could result in enforcement actions, litigation, reputational harm, and increased costs
+Added: associated with compliance and remediation.
+Added: Finally, the communications
+Added: regulatory environment is subject to political, technological, and policy-driven change, often with limited transition periods.
+Added: regulatory, or judicial actions that expand regulatory oversight of information services, narrow federal preemption, or increase enforcement
