If they offer themselves up to participate they would have to work within
the framework and the metrics the pilot will be collecting would presumably
not leave room to spin this one way or the other.

Despite Malone's stance, if the government refuses to accept such a great
real world example of the impact their filtering plans will have at scale,
the entire pilot will lose credibility.
