Today marks yet another “Day of Action” for the left to declare the internet ‘dead’ and protest FCC Chairman Ajit Pai’s light-touch regulatory framework. The irony is rich.

Not only are these activists organizing through the very internet channels which they have declared dead and gone, they are now pushing the Congressional Review Act (CRA) as a means to overturn the FCC’s decision, after years of opposing congressional action. This prompted a statement today from free-market consumer organization CASE:

“How many times are American consumers going to be confronted by so-called “consumer advocate” groups and Democrats saying the internet is on its death bed? The issue of net neutrality has gone so far off the rails of reality that the new norm is repeated Days of Action and political fear mongering, like Sen. Markey’s CRA. The reality is that Chairman Ajit Pai’s Order is about restoring internet freedom – making the internet even better, not worse through government commandeering.”
