Image of the Day: U.S. Internet Speeds Skyrocketed After Ending Failed Title II "Net Neutrality" Experiment

CFIF often highlights how the Biden Administration's bizarre decision to resurrect failed Title II "Net Neutrality" internet regulation, which caused private broadband investment to decline for the first time ever outside of a recession during its brief experiment at the end of the Obama Administration, is a terrible idea that will only punish consumers if allowed to take effect.

Here's what happened after that brief experiment was repealed under the Trump Administration and Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Chairman Ajit Pai - internet speeds skyrocketed despite late-night comedians' and left-wing activists' warnings that the internet was doomed:

A Massapequa, NY, woman has filed a notice of intent to sue Nassau County (NY) for $10 million dollars, alleging it failed to supervise a married police officer who spent "over 100 nights" with her while on-duty.

According to news reports, Tara Obenauer had a seven month affair with Nassau County cop Mike Tedesco.  The affair ended when one of Obenauer's neighbors reported that a police car was constantly parked in Obenauer's driveway.  GPS records confirm the car in question visited the address 57 times.  An internal affairs investigation ensued and Tedesco retired without permission from the police commissioner.

Obenauer now claims to have "suffered severe ... emotional and psychological damages" and is "too scared to leave her house fearing that Tedesco [the officer involved] or other officers may retaliate against her." 

An attorney for Obenauer says, "Her reputation has been completely tarnished."
