Sixth Circuit Rules Against Net Neutrality; EFF Will Continue to Fight

Sixth Circuit Rules Against Net Neutrality; EFF Will Continue to Fight

⋅

Last week, the Sixth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled against the FCC, rejecting its authority to classify broadband as a Title II “telecommunications service.” In doing so, the court removed net neutrality protections for all Americans and  took away the FCC’s ability to meaningfully regulate internet service providers. This ruling fundamentally gets wrong the reality of internet service we all live with every day. Nearly 80% of Americans view broadband access to be as important as water […]

‘Police Officers were Injured and Killed’: Klobuchar Repeats Common False Claim About January 6th

⋅

Minnesota Democrat Sen. Amy Klobuchar this week was hit by a “community note” flagging a common false statement made about January 6th and how multiple officers were killed that day. Democratic leaders routinely refer to multiple deaths of officers when the only person to die on January 6th was Ashli Babbitt, a killing of an unarmed protester that remains controversial after a whitewashing by the Capitol Police. Klobuchar, who has been a vocal supporter of censorship to quell “disinformation” on social media, […]

Supreme Court Denies Certiorari in Climate Tort Suits

⋅

Today the Supreme Court denied certiorari in Sunoco LP v. Honolulu and Shell PLC v. Honolulu, two petitions from oil companies seeking High Court intervention in a state-law-based climate case in Hawaii. Unlike with prior cert denials in climate tort cases, no justice indicated that he or she supported certiorari. On the one hand, this cert denial should not be surprising because, as I have explained, the legal arguments for federal court intervention in these cases is exceedingly weak. The […]

“School of Capitalism” – YouTube Playlist Series

⋅

It’s no surprise to anyone that the public school system does a terrible job of preparing students for financial success in a capitalist economy. Fundamental aspects like starting a business, understanding finance and investments, finding a job, and basic economic literacy are either wholly missing or reserved only for the privileged few who have already “won” the game of capitalism. That’s why I compiled this list of playlists to teach pure beginners how markets work and what they […]
