Interesting article about how Reddit is pissed off about Net Neutrality. No big deal, it's just the 5th most visited web site in America. It will be interesting to see where it goes from here, whether enough pressure can be brought to bear on Congress to change things.

"A democracy is only as resilient as its people. An informed and engaged citizenry is the fundamental requirement for a free and resilient nation. For generations, our society has protected free press, free speech, and free thought. Today, actors such as Russia are using information tools in an attempt to undermine the legitimacy of democracies. Adversaries target media, political processes, financial networks, and personal data. The American public and private sectors must recognize this and work together to defend our way of life. No external threat can be allowed to shake our shared commitment to our values, undermine our system of government, or divide our Nation."

I suspect no one is happier Matthew Petersen isn't going to be a federal judge than Matthew Petersen.

 

The process? The Administration being completely embarrassed by trying to sneak through an unqualified knucklehead is part of the process?

 

Not only is it part of the process, it's now a winning Presidential primary and general election strategy.
