Your bet will prove correct because he will be blacklisted, in a political sense, by other small businesses in that sector. Those small/medium sized businesses could not survive the shitstorm that would follow him. Only a company the size of verizon and comcast could absorb that kind of publicity without suffering from the social media outrage that would predictably ensue.

After his time in the FCC, if he doesn't continue working in government, he needs to work in the private sector, the only private sector business that he could even possibly work in after this, is Verizon/Comcast/ATT/GenericBigCorp, companies which would have some need/desire for his experiences and contacts in the government.

Whether or not you defend his actions, working anywhere else is untenable now...
