Forum Overview :: Motherfucking News :: Re: Ajit Pai admits he lied about a DDoS during the Net Neutrality comment

[quote name="blackwater"][quote name="Mischief Strawman"]Pissed about Alex Jones and Gavin McInnes getting the boot by silicon valley tech monopolies? Then vote Democrat this November. The only reason Pai spiked the monopolistic Sinclair-Turner merger is he's scared of a Democratic congress investigating him for his blatant corruption. The "Law and Order" Republicans sure as hell won't.[/quote] I agree that there's some delicious irony here. But Net Neutrality wouldn't prevent Silicon Valley tech giants from giving Alex Jones the boot. It would prevent Comcast and AT&T from giving Alex Jones the boot. [quote name="Mischief Strawman"]And vote for progressives in your primary so we get Democrats that'll actually <I>deliver</I> on that threat![/quote] Do progressives really care that much about Net Neutrality? It seems like Clinton-style centrists care about that more, since it relates to their <a href="https://theintercept.com/2016/04/22/googles-remarkably-close-relationship-with-the-obama-white-house-in-two-charts/"> corporate gravy train.</a> NN is mostly a battle between the internet giants and the carriers about who can skim off the sweet monopoly profits. Ajit Pai is obviously a shill for the carriers. Any future Dem administration would probably put a shill for teh Google in there.[/quote]
