Ajit Pai to Be FCC Chairman; Net Neutrality Threatened
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is one of the regulators that went completely insane under Barack Obama. Disregarding the law, tradition, and even the courts, they did what they want, when they wanted under Obama chairmen Julius Genachowski and Tom Wheeler.
Donald Trump is seeing fit to appoint a new chairman who will turn that around: Ajit Pai.
Outgoing chairman Wheeler flipped to his personal Twitter account to congratulate Pai:
Congratulations Chairman Pai.
— Tom Wheeler (@tewheels) January 20, 2017
Pai himself is waiting for it to be official, in the meantime tweeting about vital matters like the NBA’s former greatness:
And the socks…didn’t get better than @ShowtimeCooper! RT @Super70sSports You can’t tell me the NBA is better now. pic.twitter.com/QetI6WLfkr

With Pai as permanent chairman, and a Republican replacement confirmed for Tom Wheeler, Pai will be backed by a 3-2 majority on the Commission. This is enough for him to be able to set and pass an agenda to repeal the runaway regulatory agenda of the previous administration, including the Net Neutrality power grab.
The Internet grew into the force we know it as, under the light regulatory touch mandated by the Telecommunications Act of 1996. The Wheeler FCC used a gimmick called “reclassification” to declare arbitrarily that the Telecommunications Act’s light touch requirements no longer applied. Pai can reverse that back to the bipartisan consensus.

“He was nominated for a Republican Party position on the commission by President Barack Obama at the recommendation of Mitch McConnell.”
Oh totally reassuring that.
I read a bit about him now and I have to say, people are pretty fucking stupid.
“Pai left his Department of Justice post in February 2001 to serve as Associate General Counsel at Verizon Communications Inc., where he handled competition matters, regulatory issues, and counseling of business units on broadband initiatives.”
