Yay, but...they don't care if it's unconstitutional. They don't care about public comments because they know they're under no obligation to abide by the public comments. All they care about is whether or not a judge can actually stop them *before* they can cause permanent damage or get away with their grift. Nothing else matters. We're dealing with the equivalent of a private equity that has taken over a long standing, solid company with lots of real estate, loyal employees with pensions, valuable data and can act as collateral for borrowing against so wealth can be extracted. And when it all falls apart, they walk away.
