Your comment doesn't make sense to me given the information in your sources. I don't agree with your characterization of the FCC as "trying to take regulatory control over the internet" (implying that it doesn't have that authority) or your statement that "...their attempts have been rebuffed by the courts in literally every single case."
In your first source the case United States Telecom Association, Et al., v. Federal Communications Commission is mentioned, where the ruling was made in _favor_ of the FCC by a 2-1 margin. Additionally, the decision you cite in your third source was a loss for the FCC, but clearly their authority to regulate the internet was not in question, to whit, "The court upheld the FCC's authority to regulate broadband providers to encourage nationwide broadband deployment, agreeing with the FCC's interpretation of section 706 of the 1996 Telecommunications Act."
