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Here's what happened after that brief experiment was repealed under the Trump Administration and Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Chairman Ajit Pai - internet speeds skyrocketed despite late-night comedians' and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

Plaintiffs Seek A-Latte Money for Coffee Shortfall Print
Tuesday, March 22 2016

Two Californians are suing Starbucks claiming their Grande-size lattes don't measure up to the 16 fluid ounces advertised on the coffee giant's menu.

Sierra Strumlauf and Benjamin Robles are seeking class-action status in California federal court for what they allege are underfilled lattes that have saved Starbucks "countless of millions of dollars in cost of goods sold."

According to the complaint, “Starbucks lattes are uniformly underfilled pursuant to a standardized recipe ... leaving at least (a quarter-inch) of space below the rim of the serving cup."

The lawsuit sets forth multiple counts, including fraud, breach of express warranty, and breach of implied warranty of merchantability.

“We are aware of the plaintiffs’ claims, which we fully believe to be without merit,” a Starbucks spokesperson said. “We are proud to serve our customers high-quality, handcrafted and customized beverages, and we inform customers of the likelihood of variations.”
