While newsletters are having a moment, we had to take ours to celebrate this milestone and our over 6,000 issues!
Tom Wheeler, former Chairman, Federal Communications Commission: "I LOVE your Daily Digest! Rely on it to keep informed."

The content and breadth that you all share and cover on a daily basis is short of remarkable. I am always walking away more informed and find myself saving/retaining darn near every single daily digest into a special inbox folder."
Eric Null, U.S. Policy Manager and Global Policy Counsel, Access Now: "Just wanted to give you a hearty THANK YOU for doing this in-some-ways-thankless work.
