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Here's what happened after that brief experiment was repealed under the Trump Administration and Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Chairman Ajit Pai - internet speeds skyrocketed despite late-night comedians' and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

San Antonio Spurs superstar Tony Parker is suing a New York City nightclub for $20 million for allowing rival entourages to be in the club at the same time.

According to news reports, the NBA star was with his friend Chris Brown in the W.i.P Club in NYC when a fight broke out between Brown and rapper "Drake," both of whom have had romantic relationships with singer Rihanna. During the melee, several people were hit by broken glass, including Parker, who ended up in the emergency room with an eye injury and had to miss a week of practice with the France Olympic Basketball Team.

David Jaroslawicz, Parker's lawyer, alleges in the court papers that "The defendants [the nightclub owners] were reckless, careless and negligent in permitting Drake's entourage and Brown's entourage to be in the club at the same time despite known tension between the two."

Brown and Drake both deny responsibility for the fight; neither is named as a defendant.

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?
