Turns out the vile Koch crime syndicate were behind ending Net Neutrality, too...

Koch nonprofit president’s anti-net neutrality campaign

https://www.opensecrets.org/news/2017/12/koch-nonprofit-presidents-anti-net-neutrality-campaign/

For the past three years, American Commitment, a small nonprofit with ties to the donor network spearheaded by billionaire industrialists Charles and David Koch, has been actively opposing net neutrality with social media, commentaries, and a little-known coalition whose members include other Koch nonprofits and prominent conservative groups.

Before the FCC’s ruling in 2015 to protect net neutrality, American Commitment President Phil Kerpen actively opposed the policy with coordinated anti-net neutrality comment submissions and blog posts.
