https://techcrunch.com/2017/12/18/the-fcc-disproved-its-own-claim-that-net-neutrality-was-an-obama-plot/ >Among the many incorrect claims made by the FCC in promotion of its order eliminating 2015’s net neutrality rule was the idea that the Obama administration had exerted major influence to make that rule happen. While it’s true that President Obama publicly stated his support for the idea, the FCC’s own internal investigation found no evidence that he had done anything but that. >The investigation, summarized in a document obtained by Motherboard via FOIA request, was conducted by the FCC’s Office of Inspector General at the request of some Members of Congress. The investigators looked at some 600,000 emails from all five commissioners, dating from the period of the 2015 order’s development, looking for anything that might indicate the shadowy hand of the Executive branch.
