Court hands win to FCC, refusing to block net neutrality rules
Jun 11 2015, | By: Jason Aycock, SA News Editor
With just hours to go before the FCC was to begin enforcement of new net neutrality rules, a federal appeals court has declined to stay them in a blow to telecom firms that hoped to block them while litigation plays out.
The rules are set to go into effect tomorrow. The plaintiffs argue that they do not object to some of the regulations, like bans on blocking/throttling and paid prioritization, but they are fighting vigorously against Title II classification, which would mean regulating broadband as a tightly controlled telecom service.
