Corruption here is pretty obvious. Check his ties to those he is supposedly "regulating". In this particular case, John Oliver's analogy about a dingo is very to the point.

Current Congress won't step in, because of exactly same corruption going on. Current majority supports this insanity.

You keep referencing things you expect to be familiar, but they’re not. What John Oliver said once isn’t widely known.

It’s not obvious. Why would I check? You have to support your position. Right now you continue to weaken opposition to Pai’s actions by appearing that you aren’t being logical.

So, search is a few keystrokes away, I doubt you didn't find anything.

Anyway, about Pai's ties to monopolistic ISPs, there was a lot published here: https://www.techdirt.com/search-g.php?q=Pai

Someone having ties to companies is equivalent to corruption?

I'm not doing free research, you're going to have to mention one example of corruption.
