The FCC's order to overturn net neutrality protections was officially published in the Federal Register today and soon thereafter, the attorneys general of 22 states and Washington DC filed a lawsuit challenging the FCC's order. The coalition filed a suit earlier this year, but agreed last week to withdraw it until the FCC published the order, Reuters reports. "Today, the FCC made official its illegal rollback of net neutrality -- and, as promised, our coalition of attorneys general is filing suit," New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman said in a statement. "Consumers and businesses in New York and across the country have the right to a free and open internet, and our coalition of attorneys general won't stop fighting to protect that right."
[...] The attorneys general say in their complaint that the FCC's order was "arbitrary, capricious and an abuse of discretion within the meaning of the Administrative Procedure Act." They also say it violates federal law and conflicts with the notice-and-comment rulemaking requirements. They're asking the court to vacate the order.

That's Nitric Oxide. To breath it will turn your blood into Nitric Acid.
I was therefore confused when my friend Ted started posting photos of Los Angeles. Always there was a clear blue sky, or at night you could see the stars.
I inquired about this and he said there's never any smog there.
I attended Caltech to study Astronomy, yet was unable to see the stars at night. Had I visited the campus while I was still in high school, quite likely I would not have applied there.
