A.J. Dellinger, Gizmodo;
"Late last year, the Federal Communications Commission under Ajit Pai voted
to make it harder for American Indians to receive subsidies for
broadband internet service. Despite legal challenges, the commission
decided this week not to reverse its position, opting instead to
continue to deny expanded assistance for phone and internet access...
The FCC under Ajit Pai has taken particular interest in dismantling much
of the Lifeline program, which helps to make broadband internet and
both landline and mobile phone services available to low-income
Americans."
