Summary
FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr, a staunch opponent of broadband regulation and net neutrality, is poised to lead the agency under Donald Trump’s presidency.
Carr’s agenda includes reducing regulations on ISPs, potentially forcing Big Tech companies to fund broadband projects, and targeting platforms like TikTok over national security concerns.
He also supports revisiting Section 230 to curb perceived anti-conservative bias in social media.
Critics warn Carr’s leadership could weaken consumer protections, undermine net neutrality, and enable political interference in communications policy, prioritizing industry and partisan goals over public interest.
Oh wow, must be a huge coincidence given Trump never read project 2025
I believe him when he said he didn’t read it, because his staffers say he won’t read a goddamn thing unless it glowingly mentions him several times (or it’s a book of Hitler’s speeches). Trump himself has said he considers reading a waste of time.
What I DO believe is that he’s being spoonfed lists of appointees by the Heritage Foundation.
