FCC Chairman Ajit Pai responds to Cher’s Twitter comments opposing net neutrality repeal
Speaking at an event in Washington, D.C. on Tuesday (Nov. 28) hosted by the R Street public policy research organization, which promotes free markets and limited government, Pai attempted to “cut through the hysteria” with a speech outlining what the plan will do and why he is advancing it. There, he also directly acknowledged criticisms raised by Cher and actors Alyssa Milano, Kumail Nanjiani, George Takei and Mark Ruffalo claiming the decision would free corporations like Verizon, Comcast and AT&T to block or throttle certain content or require websites to buy into internet “fast lanes.”
