    That made me so mad. It was so openly botted and gaslit. Not a single human being was against it that wasn’t part of a megacorp monopoly. It was just objectively bad. Just shows we straight up do not have a democracy, our votes meant nothing despite being one of the most widespread campaigns against it. I remember it was even the front page of google search to vote against it. That’s how you know how bad it was.

      He received over 300,000 letters expressing support for net neutrality, complete with names, emails, physical addresses, and often phone numbers, and he dismissed all of them as spam. He knowingly voted against the will of the people for the benefit of a handful of corporations.

        The funny part is he started working for a venture capital firm (Searchlight) after he left office that invested heavily in various isps and telcos. It’s like American politicians invented the most advanced bribery system and no one even blinks an eye, this is just disgusting.
