> The Senate today used its power under the Congressional Review Act to ensure that the FCC rulemaking "shall have no force or effect" and to prevent the FCC from issuing similar regulations in the future.

This is honestly the most frightening thing to me. Even if prevailing opinions change, they can't bring these regulations back in the future? This seems...majorly problematic.

Lets all hope they are only selling it to advertisers.

Oh, also, just today- fifty gambling addicted engineers at google, in need of fast money- get them while they are on the projects and exploitable.

First offer, gets a CEO with embarrassing fetish on top.
