FCC votes to ban termination fees for cable and satellite services::FCC Chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel cast the deciding vote to ban cable and satellite companies from issuing early termination fees.
I like having a FCC that is actually working for the public, and not lobbyists. This is nice.
The Trump / Ajit Pai days sucked.
Fuck Ajit Pai
And the oversized Reese’s coffee mug he rode in on.
Or better yet, with it.
Can it extend to ISPs too? Please. And automakers, and any company?
I’m in favor of this, but how did it pass when “two out of four commissioners voted against the measure”?
Should say two out of five. A third Democrat was approved earlier this year
Which influential politician had to pay a fee and got salty? I’ll only believe it wasn’t that if they make it retroactive from 1980 onward.
Bravo!
This is great but also decades late.
That’s how it goes with a government of one party who only wants bad things and one that wants some good things but extremely slowly so it doesn’t upset their owner donors too much.
