Actually it’s just because there’s rich people who are profiting off of weather reporting apps. NOAA is actually banned from advertising their reports. And they still have a sizeable portion of the market because it’s just straight up a better service. So the next big windfall is to kill the government’s public reports altogether and make the private apps the only place you can find them.
Oh yeah that’s 100 percent part of it. But the push over the line for modern mainstream conservatives is watching the government do something the private sector could profit from. That’s literally the line they’ve said they wanted between public and private sector ever since I was old enough to pay attention to politics in the 90’s. The climate change thing is why the radicals care and why it’s a run at the entirety of NOAA instead of just the NWS.
