The chairman of the Federal Communications Commission criticized California’s recently-passed net neutrality law during a speech on Friday, calling it “radical,” “illegal,” and labeling California a “nanny state.”
“Last month, the California state legislature passed a radical, anti-consumer internet regulation bill that would impose restrictions even more burdensome than those adopted by the FCC in 2015,” Ajit Pai, the FCC chairman, said. “The Internet should be run by engineers, entrepreneurs, and technologists, not lawyers, bureaucrats, and politicians.”
