And who's to say he can't be persuaded by some green bills either?

- snappyTertle 9y agoHe's probably being paid to start the investigation too.
- uytuyiyt 9y agoI post on http://reddit.com/r/noNetNeutrality http://reddit.com/r/noNetNeutrality occasionally. Can you show me exactly how he was paid and by who? I hear this all the time but no evidence has been cited.
- ceejayoz 9y agoI think it'd be silly to assert he's being directly bribed with big suitcases full of cash. The concepts of regulatory capture and revolving doors are hardly new or significantly disputed, though. He's worked for Verizon in the past, and I'd fully expect him to land a nice industry job after his tenure. Doing nice things for industry helps a lot in future employment prospects. He has joked in the past about being a "Verizon puppet" (https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2017/12/ajit-pai-jokes-about-being-a-brainwashed-verizon-puppet-at-the-fcc/ https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2017/12/ajit-pai-jokes-a...) and given his actions I think there's a bit of truth to the joke.
