Let's wait and see where he ends up. If he doesn't immediately go back to telecom after his appointment is over, then I'll agree bringing up his history wasn't warranted.
- epmaybe 9y agoI'm curious, where would you expect someone with years of experience in a specific industry to go after public office? Besides public office, of course.
- rapind 9y agoA company that didn't benefit from his appointment. Is that crazy to expect? Is it really that hard to find?
- mattnewton 9y agoNot into the arms of a large company they were regulating. It means they have a massive conflict of interests.
- learc83 9y agoYeah, it's the obvious choice for him, but that doesn't mean that it doesn't set up perverse incentives.
- erikpukinskis 9y agoIf I wrote regulations that benefitted Google, I would hope I’d go work at Qualcomm or somewhere unrelated. It gives the appearance of quid pro quo.
- epmaybe 9y agoIf I started selling a product that may have benefited a future employer, should I not work for that employer in the future? Not saying these are at all equivalent situations given the amount of power Pai but curious all the same.
