- Comment on Broadcom execs say VMware price, subscription complaints are unwarranted 7 months ago:
Government intervention would only happen if VMware was deemed critical to national security. Capitalism is gonna capitalism, otherwise.

- Comment on FCC to vote to restore net neutrality rules, reversing Trump 7 months ago:
I think you are blending your facts/timeline. Ajit Pai’s FCC struck them down for that (dubious) reason. This upcoming vote is to undo that damage and revert back to what the FCC under Obama put in place.

I put a relative’s mobile phone on NextDNS to block ads for them, and the came back a couple days later noting how weird the ad-free experience was. Thankfully they didn’t want to revert, but yeah, most people are way into advertiser Stockholm Syndrome at this point.
I think I’ve been blocking/combating internet ads for 20+ years at this point.
