The FCC hopes you are too busy to read this [View all]
The FCC today finally released the full details of its attack on net neutrality, in the hopes you're too busy preparing for the Thanksgiving holiday to actually read it. We'll save you a little time as you brime your turkey or drive to distant relatives: it's every bit as bad as everyone expected -- and in some ways, quite a bit worse.
The full, Orwellian-named "Restoring Internet Freedom" fact sheet makes it clear tat the FCC is pushing for a full repeal of not only net neutrality rules and protections, but the Title II classifications of ISPs as common carriers that underpins the FCC's authority over broadband providers. It is, by any measure, a grotesque example of crony capitalism run amok, and a blatanthand out to the nation's uncompetitive broadband duopolies.
