"Police have released two videos showing the moments leading up to a fatal crash involving a self-driving Uber car in Tempe, Arizona, on Sunday. In the 14-second video, the autonomous vehicle is seen failing to slow down before hitting Elaine Herzberg, 49, who is walking her bike across the road." - Congress dumps the CLOUD Act into the omnibus spending bill. Will there be debate?

"FCC chair still can’t offer proof that repeal will boost broadband access."
