FCCÂ to vote to restore landmark net neutrality rules, reversing Trump move

The Federal Communications Commission will vote to reinstate landmark net neutrality rules and assume new regulatory oversight of broadband internet that was rescinded under former President Donald Trump, the agency’s chair said.

The FCC told advocates on Tuesday of the plan to vote on the final rule at its April 25 meeting.

The commission voted 3-2 in October on the proposal to reinstate open internet rules adopted in 2015 and re-establish the commission’s authority over broadband internet.

Net neutrality refers to the principle that internet service providers should enable access to all content and applications regardless of the source, and without favoring or blocking particular products or websites.

"Rosenworcel has said the reclassification would give the FCC important new national security tools."

That's all I needed to hear.
Gotta get it done before Chevron is reversed. That way Congress will just codify "all existing rules"... done deal.

Nobody needs filtered internet. (well, maybe kids)

The filtering here is bad enough.

"Jobs bill" "Respect for Marriage Act" "Inflation Reduction Act" "Net neutrality". All leftwing programs designed to do exactly the opposite of their title. Named in a way to fool stupid people (aka Democrat voters).

We need the Greatest Disseminator of Disinformation in World history, the US Federal government, to tell us what is permissible on the Internet????

You think this ends well??

Do they intent to reinstate Trump on social media?

Don't be fooled: Net neutrality is about more than just blocking and throttling | Brookings

The net neutrality debate has huge implications beyond the reductive "blocking and throttling" buzzwords that ISPs use to characterize it.

The righties do love their censorship so much, as long as it's corporations doing the censorship. Look at all the them here defending censorship.

They hate it so much when the government prevents their beloved censorship. But then, they also think that prohibiting racism is racism, so, go fig.

Go on, righties, tell us more about how prohibiting censorship is censorship. How exactly does that work?

 

[CrusaderFrank]

Never forget, Satanic Progressive Fascists used the full power of the Federal Government to censor speech on social media including banning the former President of the United States

 

[Oddball]

Who elected anyone on the FCC to do any of this?...When can they be voted out?

And they gaslight us, saying there's no "deep state"...Well, here it is, right up in your face.

Musk already reinstated Trump.

However, now Trump owns a competing entity.

If Obama did it, it ain't good and does the opposite of what it claims to do.

A private entity has every right to censor any damn thing they wish, only the Govt is limited in such by the Constitution.

The very last thing we need is the Fed Govt telling sites what they must allow.

So the government can't pressure private social media companies to suppress content?

They should not be allowed to, but clearly it does happen

Clearly? You mean in violation of the Constitution, correct?

They already do that. (COPPA laws being an example).

COPPA laws do not force sites to add content, or allow content they do not wish to.

So Trump Administration can send the FBI on The FaceBook to censor posts by Progressive Fascists?

Awesome!!
