To be totally fair here, I think you'd probably have to establish a base rate of this. I'd bet that virtually all prior FCC commissioners end up with a gig like that, regardless of how they regulated the industry. It should be an easy question to answer though.

EDIT: It seems many of them go to this place: https://www.aspeninstitute.org/ (source: https://thehill.com/policy/technology/314248-fcc-chair-to-ta...). Not sure what to make of that.

I’ve noticed that the Aspen Institute is a sink for these sort of individuals across a number of fields. So far as I can tell, it functions as a sort of a bullpen for talent at the political / economic interface for a number of large corporations. It certainly isn’t mission-driven or benevolent.
