During the Obama administration every single petition that received 100k signatures got a recorded, public response from the president, even if that response was dismissive. That's what the site was created for, to make sure that the people were heard.
Do we think that the Annoying Orange administration will follow this pattern of transparency and openness?

I suspect the default is throttled, and any websites or services that aren't specifically included in some package are just eternally going to be slow

i suspect the default is going to be around where it is now, maybe a bit slower. i think their primary focus is going to be slowing down 1. competitors, 2. sites that users haven't paid extra for, and 3. VPNs
