Trump’s FCC pick seeks to curb Big Tech censorship. Promoting himself as a “champion for the little guy,” Nathan Simington, Trump’s nominee to lead the FCC, has pledged to “take on Big Tech and restore free speech online.” Simington, a former lawyer for the Cato Institute, has criticized Internet giants like Google and Facebook for engaging in “an unprecedented surge” of censorship. Simington is a controversial pick and faces an uphill battle. But his nomination is a sign that Trump is serious about reining in Big Tech.
