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.

A California woman is suing P.F. Chang’s China Bistro Inc., claiming the chain’s $1.00 up charge on gluten-free menu items is discriminatory.

Anna Marie Phillips has filed suit in U.S. District Court for Northern California in San Jose, California, alleging that the restaurant policy of charging more for gluten-free items on the menu violates the Americans with Disabilities Act. Phillips' suit further claims that the gluten-free surcharge is added to items that are naturally gluten-free. Phillips is seeking class action status on behalf of diners with celiac disease or gluten intolerance. The lawsuit asks for an injunction against further gluten-free menu item surcharges, restitution for the surcharges paid, and undesignated civil penalties and compensatory damages.

A P.F. Chang’s spokeswoman told reporters in an email, “The company does not comment on pending litigation.”

If TikTok's data collection or manipulation under Chinese ownership is the grave danger that our government says it is (and it may well be), then wouldn't the prudent action be to ban it immediately rather than some time down the road?
