Guys we’re being presented with an opportunity to have Ajit Pai FIRED from his position which someone as corrupt and untrustworthy as him has no right to continue holding! SPREAD THE WORD!!!
#FireAjitPai
#FireAjitSavetheNet

Also if anybody could figure out exactly where his law credentials came from so we can maybe get him disbarred from practicing law (like Jock Thompson, remember that guy?) now would be a great time.

Putting it here cuz I’d like to start the new year with decent internet.

you know this fucking tune

They made it into a ringtone because it was old enough to be public domain, and Nokia (I think?) didn’t want to have to pay royalties.

… I like the full version.

So after hearing this I did a little Google searching and found out that the name of this piece is “Gran Vals.” It was composed in 1902 by Spanish composer Francisco Tárrega. It was originally composed for guitar of all things. In 1993, the Executive Vice President of Nokia Ansii Vanjoki brought the piece to his Head of Corporate Communications Lauri Kivinen, and they selected an excerpt from measures 13-16 of the song to appear as the Type 7 ringtone on the Nokia 2110 released in 1994.

This is a performance of the original piece I found on YouTube.
