FCC Slashes Public Feedback: 10 Days to Protest Democracy

In a dazzling display of administrative speed, the FCC has decided to slice down public comment periods to an eyebrow-raising 10 days. This turbo-charged timeline means citizens, advocacy groups, and lawyers now have less time to scream about new rules than it takes to binge a mini-series on streaming. The regulatory body, infamous for occasional snail-pace decisions, apparently believes rapid-fire governance is the future—because nothing says 'public input' like a deadline tighter than a fast-food drive-thru. While the FCC champions efficiency, one can only wonder if democracy accidentally got caught in the crossfire of a corporate speedrun contest.
