The Federal Communications Commission will propose new rules that allow Internet service providers to offer a faster lane through which to send video and other content to consumers, as long as a content company is willing to pay for it, according to people briefed on the proposals.

The proposed rules are a complete turnaround for the F.C.C. on the subject of so-called net neutrality, the principle that Internet users should have equal ability to see any content they choose, and that no content providers should be discriminated against in providing their offerings to consumers.

Quite a disconnect and turn-around, don't you think? I mean even though an appeals court ruled in favor of Verizon$ Net Neutrality
objections, that certainly does not mean that the FCC (appointed by Obama) should do a 180 degree turn-around and propose the opposite of what they supposedly supported. Follow the money in "the best government money can buy."
