4. "Caving" implies that a non-rigged, non-corporate outcome was desired.

This administration has been consistent and aggressive in its work on behalf of corporations and against the interests of ordinary Americans.

They, like the administration before them, have systematically been removing every single avenue the people have left to fight back against the corporate looting of our lives and our futures -- assaulting our right to privacy, our free press, our right to assemble and protest, our protections for journalists and whistleblowers...

With this next massive betrayal, we lose control of the internet...and the corporations gain the means to control our access to information and freedom of association. Look at the wasteland of cable TV. This is NOT just about costs. This is about control of information and communication. The free and open internet was perhaps our last hope for organizing and educating to take back our country from corporate fascism.

This is a horrifying but expected signal from a corporate Trojan horse administration. This is a devastating blow to all Americans.
