The court declared that the FCC cannot prevent states from enacting their own open internet laws or regulations. There are now nine states that have rules protecting net neutrality, six of which have done it by executive order. There are four states that have passed laws and another 27 considering legislation. On top of that, more than 125 mayors around the country have signed net neutrality pledges that they won't do business with ISPs that violate net neutrality standards. The court also ordered the FCC to rework the repeal to ensure that net neutrality rules applied for first responders and public safety agencies, as well as ensuring that low-income communities have access.

One of the key arguments behind the Federal Communications Commission's decision to repeal net neutrality was the number of supportive emails it had received for its proposals. But an investigation has shown that a huge number of these were faked by lobbyists.

What’s more, the company responsible - LCX Digital - used a dataset stolen by hackers to flood the public comment period, and has continued to use the same dataset for a number of other public comment periods in both local and federal legislation processes.


But shirley, the operators' stoolies on the FCC knew absolutely nothing about it...
New This is me being shocked
