Which government agency tells the realfake truth? Back in 2014, the Federal Confusion Commission (FCC) was dominated by autocratic Democratic Chairman Tom Wheeler when -- on HBO -- John Oliver ranted about net neutrality. (He was for it). Millions of subsequent postings on the FCC website were said to have crashed its server as fans of Oliver weighed in supporting the move to Title II telecom rules for the internet. Fast forward to 2017 and Oliver was again ranting on HBO about new FCC Republican Chairman Ajit Pai's move to dismantle Title II rules in favor of returning to Title I information service "light" regulations. The FCC's servers got overloaded again. (For a little background Verizon, where Pai once worked, sued to overturn Wheeler's Title II designation … and lost.)
Did John Oliver's GoFCCYourself.com Crash the FCC Server?
