- rsingel 12y agoThis is largely political saber rattling. AT&T's best arguments are going to be procedural. If FCC gets past arguments it didn't dot the i's, then this will go to the Supreme Court where AT&T and Verizon will get walloped. I can explain why, but basically there are 9 votes lined up against the ISPs on reclassification.
- r00fus 12y agoI'd love to hear why you think there are 9 votes for reclassification, btw.
- dragonwriter 12y agoWell, duh. The telecoms have sued over every previous move regarding net neutrality, and they've made it very clear that they are going to continue to do so even if the FCC does exactly what the court in the last case said they could do. No one is surprised by this, least of all the FCC Commissioners considering voting on the proposals. I suspect that Wheeler's staff already has prepared legal analyses addressing most of the issues AT&T might raise in a lawsuit. Its hardly their first rodeo.
