Broadband lobby groups prepare lawsuit, calling rules a "net fatality."

The Federal Communications Commission voted 3–2 to impose net neutrality rules today, restoring the common-carrier regulatory framework enforced during the Obama era and then abandoned while Trump was president.

The rules prohibit Internet service providers from blocking and throttling lawful content and ban paid prioritization.

“Consumers have made clear to us they do not want their broadband provider cutting sweetheart deals, with fast lanes for some services and slow lanes for others,” FCC Chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel said at today’s meeting.

    Residential is $80/Mo for me. A business plan when I last looked was $200/Mo. Wish I lived somewhere that had options other than spectrum.

      Damn that sucks, yea if you have multiple options, then you usually have a lot better luck. Try going to your local business branch and meet up with your account rep. You’d be surprised at what they will try to do to get you as a customer.
