Evan Swarztrauber, communications director of TechFreedom, spoke with Breitbart News Daily SiriusXM host Alex Marlow on Friday about the FCC, net neutrality, and several other tech-related topics under the Trump administration, as opposed to the Obama era.

Swarztrauber stressed that the big government, hyper-regulatory mentality one usually associates with liberals and Democrats often confounded private sector efforts to advance Internet and broadband technology during the Obama administration.

“There’s a lot that can be done” with the change in administration, suggested Swarztrauber. “And the FCC can play a positive role. It can be an ally to companies and consumers, rather than just trying to regulate everything.”

Swarztrauber has high hopes for Trump-appointed FCC head Ajit Pai, whom many see as already moving ahead with Trump’s deregulatory agenda.

Breitbart News Daily airs on SiriusXM Patriot 125 weekdays from 6:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. Eastern.
