“The D.C. Circuit’s dropped a bomb on us,” said Ben Scott, policy director of the advocacy group Free Press that challenged Comcast and sided with the FCC, in an interview. “Comcast is now permitted to block Web sites with impunity.”See how the statement is worded, it's all a lie, if you don't like Comcast, go somewhere else and buy your access. Free Press is Obama's commie group trying to destroy free speech in America. Yes you heard that right, a group named "Free Press" is a commie group funded and put out there specifically to destroy free speech.
After having Comcast for many years, it's fine and they don't block websites, like the federal government will do. They may limit your traffic volume, but don't 'block' anything, that's what the ChiComs and other Communists do.
Net Neutrality takes one for free speech ... A US Federal Appeals Court has ruled that the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) lacks the proper authority to demand Internet providers such as Comcast fully equalize the flow of traffic.
The ruling was prompted by an official Comcast appeal, which had challenged the FCC's authority to demand the broad imposition of "net neutrality" on national broadband providers.
US Appeals Court overturns FCC net-neutrality ruling "FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski argues that such rules are needed to prevent phone and cable companies from using their control over Internet access to favor some online content and services over others," wrote the AP's Joelle Tesller.
"The decision also has serious implications for the massive national broadband plan released by the FCC last month. The FCC needs clear authority to regulate broadband in order to push ahead with some its key recommendations, including a proposal to expand broadband by tapping the federal fund that subsidizes telephone service in poor and rural communities."
Meanwhile, Andrew Jay Schwartzman, a Washington-based attorney who helped defend the FCC's position in the case, told BusinessWeek that the above-mentioned decision represented a "severe limitation on the agency's future authority" to regulate companies' activities on the Internet.
Net Neutrality, otherwise known as government control and censorship of the Internet went down in flames. And that is a very good thing.
Can the EPA's now illegal CO2 rules be far behind?
