                  Looks like Ajit Pai might be on the payroll of Sinclair Broadcast Group. Two lawmakers are asking for an investigation.

                        This is bizarre to me.

                        Pai's proposal relies on filings made by carriers to bolster his argument that the functional test "resulted in unnecessary and costly filings" and "can also delay network upgrades." The proposal dismissed the Communications Workers of America argument that the functional test doesn't create uncertainty, saying the union's argument is "directly contradicted by the comments of many carriers."

                        I'm not a fan of Unions, especially since they directly benefit from this rule, but why are you relying on the people you are charged with regulating when you should be doing your own study? Oh right... money.

                              Basically... "We want states to regulate municipal broadband and prevent cities from creating their own ISPs.... but we don't want states to regulate us." am I understanding this correctly? Seems like we want our cake, eat it, and prevent the poors from ever getting flour to make their own cake.

                                Yup, but more like "we don't even want the poors to know what cake is."

                                        Well it goes against the basic federal state law standard. Meaning that the fed sets the minimum requirements or law for something. And states can ramp it up from there.

                                          Also to note it's interesting that the FCC can't see that clearly the states and residents of those states want Net Neutrality. Yea Pai is actively doing everything he can to remove and prevent Net Neutrality from ever existing.

                                            Not for the last twenty years. They've been pro-monopoly.
