- vegitable 9y agoI haven't followed this stuff until recently. What exactly was the Obama administration doing?
- zanny 9y agoThe FCC under Obama reclassified the Internet as a title 2 common carrier, allowing the FCC to regulate ISPs as the infrastructure they are. Trump appointed an old Verizon veteran who was already in the FCC when he took office with the pretty blatant instruction to reverse that decision and go further by fully authorizing ISPs to do paid prioritization of service. That kills the Internet as it is, since if there is no competition ISPs will extort whomever they want and can, and anyone but the largest players (Facebook et al) won't have the money to pay them off to get access to users.
