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

CFIF often highlights how the Biden Administration's bizarre decision to resurrect failed "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  Here's what happened after that brief experiment was repealed under the Trump Administration and Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Chairman Ajit Pai - internet speeds skyrocketed despite latenight comedians' and left-wing activists' warnings that the internet was doomed:

The state of Missouri is suing the Chinese government for its mishandling of COVID-19.

According to news reports, Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt has filed a federal lawsuit in a U.S. court, seeking to hold China accountable for the COVID-19 pandemic. Missouri claims China did little to stop the spread of the virus and “lied to the world about the danger and contagious nature of COVID-19.”

Missouri is demanding economic compensation from China on the grounds that Missouri residents may have suffered tens of billions of dollars in economic damages.

At press time, the state of Mississippi is considering a similar lawsuit.

Legal experts predict the lawsuits face uphill battles as China is protected by sovereign immunity.
