It seems absurd that the DOJ is using the FCC's argument that it didn't have the authority to regulate ISPs to prevent states from regulating ISPs. If they don't have the authority to regulate, how do they have the authority to stop regulation?

Comcast's bottom line doesn't care about rational legal arguments.
