"The newly-installed Republican-majority Congress is moving rapidly to try and undermine or prevent the FCC from potentially putting the large US carriers of Internet service under "Title II" regulation. FCC Chair Tom Wheeler revealed in a recent interview that his latest proposal will definitely make net neutrality mandatory; it will NULLIFY the "PAID PRIORITIZATION" deals Netflix was FORCED to make with carriers; can MANDATE rural expansion of high-speed Internet service, SERVICE to poorer communities and schools, albeit with hefty TAX BREAKS; and address WIDESPREAD COMPLAINTS OF POOR CUSTOMER SERVCE, LACK of competition, and HIGH PRICES prevalent with US ISPs.
Chairman Wheeler's original suggestion for Title II oversight far PREDATES President Obama's public call for the regulation. Republican opposition to the concept also precedes the President's remarks, with a bill being debated right now in the House to block the FCC from implementing the oversight."
Let's remember, the republicans ALREADY have said they aspire to the FCCs goals, but will NOT give anyone authority to enforce rules for them.
"We are against statutory rape, so if your daughter gets some of it, no one will enforce what we say we are against."
That's the republicans, double talking assholes protecting their corporate sponsors.
