Skype-In; FCC-Out
Skype has just hired Christopher Libertelli, former Senior Legal Advisor to former FCC Chairman Michael Powell, to handle government and regulatory affairs for North America. It's great to see that Skype is stepping up its role in the global policy arena.
Chris,
I'm conflicted. We certainly could use your continued wisdom within the halls of government, but I'm glad you have decided to join our side of the battle. We need your talents and expertise during this crucial moment in our battle to promote IP-based communications, particularly as governments around the world begin to take notice and cast a critical eye on VoIP with a mind to regulate the nascent industry.
I would have suggested that you add at least one exotic locale outside of North America to your portfolio. Winters jetting between DC, London, and Estonia could be rough without at least one sanctuary in the Southern Hemisphere. Good luck at Skype and welcome to the light side of the force. :)
