I have been approached by some of the midshipmen and their families to ask about the consequences to their careers from this issue.

If there is another takeaway here, it's Jim Clapper's reference to the power and seriousness of the threat to our democracy, a foundational threat resulting Russian hacks, the cyber attack, really an act of cyber war.

The threat to net neutrality and privacy on the Internet I think are two of the most profound challenges we face.
They've been set back in recent weeks by Republican colleagues, by pronouncements from Chairman Pai, and by President Trump.
