Here we go:

Federal Communications Commission Votes on Net Neutrality

[pdxflyboy]

1. Question. What about the courts?

Will actual implementation be held up in court for a few years?

[onenote]

5. Courts generally are reluctant to stay FCC orders pending appeal

It could happen, but I wouldn't count on it.

[mahatmakanejeeves]

2. It's starting now; "restoring internet freedom." NT

[mahatmakanejeeves]

8. this Ajit Pai asshole is lying his ass off

[Caliman73]

9. Rosenworcel was great. Couldn't stomach Pai.

He is such a sanctimonious asshole.

[mahatmakanejeeves]

10. I think someone just phoned in a bomb threat.

"On the advice of security," we're leaving the room.

[yallerdawg]

11. Are you watching this?

Jackbooted thuggery.

Shutdown of American openness and transparency. End of democracy and responsibility to the American people.

Welcome to "New America."

And it's really scary.

[mahatmakanejeeves]

12. Yes. They just left the room due to a security concern. NT

[yallerdawg]

13. Convenient drama.

"WE control everything. You are nothing."

That couldn't possibly be a Federal building? Where just anyone can get in, with just about anything...

[mahatmakanejeeves]

15. A threat could have been phoned or emailed in.

They're back. Ajit Pai just finished talking.

3-2, net neutrality is done.

[yallerdawg]

14. The one guiding principle of this administration:

"If Obama did it, repeal and end!"

The lesson for US here - EVERYTHING is reversible!

[yallerdawg]

16. Done.

Foul fuckin' bastards.

[Takket]

17. it is over. net neutrality abolished

3-2 party line vote.

Thank you to the democrats who opposed this.
