Or so says Paul Kapustka with his list of “Top Ten Net Neutrality Influencers”, on which I do not rank even an honorable mention.
Tip of the hat, however, to friend-of-the-blog and occasional sparring partner Richard Bennett included in the honorable mention slot.
On the plus side, no one will care if I take Wednesday and Friday off.
Stay tuned . . . .
@SenAmyKlobuchar @Apple @SenMikeLee @Google @WilsonLWhite @ConsumerFed @Spotify @horaciog @TheTileApp @Match @SenBlumenthal @MarkWarner A lot of the hearing focusing on platforms misusing data they've gleaned from apps competing on their platform. Think that's unfair and want to prohibit it? Try @haroldfeld's CPNI idea: https://www.publicknowledge.org/blog/an-ounce-of-preventive-regulation-is-worth-a-pound-of-antitrust-enforcement-the-case-for-platform-cpni/
@SenAmyKlobuchar @Apple @SenMikeLee @Google @WilsonLWhite @ConsumerFed @Spotify @horaciog @TheTileApp @Match @SenBlumenthal @MarkWarner @haroldfeld @SenOssoff .@SenAmyKlobuchar submitting PK's letter for the record into the hearing now. Hear it's really good & super well-written: https://www.publicknowledge.org/documents/public-knowledge-app-store-letter-to-congress-on-app-marketplace-competition-hearing/
Pleased that @linamkhan points out role of Congress in punishing FTC when it does its job.
@SenatorCantwell @linamkhan @FTC @SenAmyKlobuchar @SenBlumenthal Worried about local news? So is @publicknowledge. This might help: https://www.publicknowledge.org/documents/addressing-information-pollution-with-a-superfund-for-the-internet/ @lisahmacpherson
@SenatorCantwell @linamkhan @FTC @SenAmyKlobuchar @SenBlumenthal @publicknowledge @lisahmacpherson Now @SenAmyKlobuchar: Talking about the hearing this afternoon on app stores (#antitrust doubleheader). Khan talks about companies have power "to set the terms" of the market.
I told Paul that my inclusion on his list undermines its credibility. I think you know you hold more sway on this issue than I ever will, and you’re on the winning side to boot.
Let us resolve it by joining each other’s fan clubs.
I hear Kevin Martin is the president of yours. Maybe he’ll comment.
Don’t feel so bad. Paul posted it on Muniwireless and he did not mention me at all.
When I get the call to appear on “Dancing with the Stars,” I’ll put in a good word for you, Esme.
Hey, just like any good policy maker I can be swayed by contributions… for the next rev!
The list is so appended… Howard is now honorably mentioned as well. I apologize for the omission!
Howard!
Oh, the ignominy!
jrs
d’oh! Can’t even get a correction correckt. (It’s correct on the web page, though.)
