There is a term for people like Ajit Pai taking leading roles and it is corporate capture. This has been happening to other government agencies and it is a real risk to a democracy. These people have a single goal and that is to serve corporate interests. We have seen this happen in several agencies under the current administration.

Regulatory capture is the term I usually see used for this.
