New FCC Plan a Threat to Internet Freedom
FreedomWorks Foundation Decries New Regulations
The Federal Communications Commission released a Notice of Inquiry today to “reclassify” the internet, which would increase the agency's regulatory control. The FCC has carefully crafted its words to make this change seem minute, but in fact, this “reclassification” has enormous potential to harm consumers and could adversely affect broadband deployment. Far from being a slight change, this reclassification would, for the first time, allow the FCC to regulate the internet, threatening innovation in this dynamic sector of the economy.
