November 15, 2014 by Archived posts 646 Comments

By Francisco Casillas |Staff Writer| On Nov. 10, in a move that could decide the internet’s future, President Barack Obama urged the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to protect the internet as an open, accessible and free service, known as “net neutrality.” Obama believes the FCC should, “implement the strongest possible rules to protect net neutrality” by reclassifying consumer broadband service under Title II of the Telecommunications Act, which acts as a utility service. This would restrict Internet Service Providers (ISPs) from blocking service to certain websites and force them to treat all Internet sites the same, whether they are large media corporations, such as Netflix … [Read more...] about Obama urges Internet companies to play fair
