Conservative Groups Accuse FCC of Helping Net Neutrality Advocates File Comments

jfruh writes Conservative groups opposed to net neutrality have a beef with the FCC, claiming the commission helped pro-net neutrality advocates file comments on the subject without similarly helping opponents. In other news out of this camp, it turns out American Commitment, an advocacy group with ties to the Republican billionaire Koch brothers, sent out 2.4 million letters to Congress opposing net neutrality but only collected about 814,000 signatures. The group then generated three letters to Congress for each person signing the petition, one letter to each of the signer's two senators and one to each signer's representative.

    as long as the party contineus to generally also support workers rights, unions

    You can't really support both. You either support unions' rights or workers' rights. Once the unions are given privileges, workers' rights are handed over to the union collective.

    Having your labor exploited by a powerful corporation is bad enough. Being exploited by a powerful corporation AND a powerful union just adds insult to injury.
