> The regulatory hurdles that Google is demanding relief from are (largely) not the result of lobbying. They're the result of the dysfunction of municipal politics.

No.

Lobbying is when big companies spend a lot of $ to try to get their way.

The dysfunctional municipal politics rayiner refers to is when politicians pander to various groups of voters to get votes.

They don't pander to this voter to get vote.
