She has a good record. She stopped the AT&T-T-Mobile merger that worked against the interest of customers and she stopped the “gentlemen’s agreement” among tech companies that worked against the interest of employees.

If she keeps the focus on Agency Pricing being against the interest of readers, Agency Pricing will be dead.

Good riddance to a price-fixing scheme that should have never, ever been enacted.
