    I remember similar cynicism when Obama appointed ~former telecom lobbyist~ Tom Wheeler as FCC chair… only for him to come out with the strongest net neutrality regs in history. People can surprise you.

      Tom Wheeler really was surprising because he was a huge industry shill before being appointed FCC chair, and then turned around and stopped being shitty.
