That’s probably more a stalling tactic then anything else.

The longer they can run down the clock, the greater the chance is that Trump dismantles the FCC before the case is over, and even if he doesn’t do that it lets them keep selling data for longer.

Privacy badger does this.

Every embedded link to Twitter requires you to click to enable them.
