FCC Passes Net Neutrality

[A Black Falcon]

I think my great dislike of cellphones colors how much I care about that... :)

Even beyond that though, I think part of the excuse was that cellphones that use the internet like this are a quite recent thing (it's harder to determine rules like this for something newer, evidently) and the FCC commissioner decided to go for a compromise position which wouldn't really satisfy anyone but he thought would be more likely to be supported or something along those lines.

Despite that though the two Republicans on the panel oppose net neutrality, as do the Republicans in congress, so I'm sure at some point in the future this rule will come under attack. So maybe they should have pushed more, but maybe one of the Democrats on the panel would only support this much or something? I'm not sure. But yeah, I think passing some form of net neutrality is important. I agree that I'm sure that once we learn the details of the rules there will be things for everyone to dislike, but that can be improved on over time, I think.
