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Here's what happened after that brief experiment was repealed under the Trump Administration and Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Chairman Ajit Pai - internet speeds skyrocketed despite late-night comedians' and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 man is suing New York City for $2 undecillion, an amount recognized as more money than there is on Earth.

After allegedly being bitten by a rabid dog on a city bus, Anton Purisima has filed a lawsuit in Manhattan seeking $2,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000. According to news reports, Purisima is suing as a result of the dog bite and the fact that a couple took unauthorized photos of him while he was being treated at a local hospital.  In addition to New York City and Metropolitan Transportation Authority, Purisima is suing two New York hospitals, Kmart, LaGuardia Airport, a bakery and the dog's owner.

Purisima claims in his lawsuit that the pain and suffering he has endured cannot be measured in money and is therefore "priceless."

This is not Purisima's first day in court; Purisima has filed lawsuits in the past against Wells Fargo, JP Morgan, Wachovia and the People's Republic of China.
