Verizon’s $ 20 billion deal to acquire the fiber internet provider Frontier is officially happening. On Friday, the Federal Communications Commission signed off on the merger, which will allow Verizon to “upgrade and expand” Frontier’s existing fiber networks.

After FCC chairman Brendan Carr said Verizon agreed to end its DEI policies, the agency approved the telco's $20 billion deal to acquire Frontier.
