Why was Gigi hated?

Gigi Sohn was a controversial choice for FCC commissioner for a number of reasons.

+ Her views on net neutrality. Sohn strongly supports net neutrality, the principle that all internet traffic should be treated equally, regardless of its source or destination. This is a controversial issue, with some arguing that net neutrality is necessary to protect consumers from internet service providers (ISPs) that might prioritize traffic from certain websites or services. Others argue that net neutrality is an unnecessary government regulation that stifles innovation.
 

+ Her ties to the tech industry. Sohn has worked in the tech industry for many years, most recently as a senior fellow at the New America Foundation. This made some question whether she would be too close to the tech companies the FCC regulates.
+ Her past statements. Sohn has made a number of statements that have been criticized by Republicans, including calling Fox News a "propaganda outlet" and tweeting that police are "armed goons in riot gear with tear gas."
   

+ Her support for the defund the police movement. Sohn has expressed support for the defund the police movement, which calls for reducing funding for police departments and investing in other community programs. This is a controversial issue, with some arguing that it would lead to an increase in crime.
