Good News for a Change - FCC Chairman: No Need For New Internet Regulation

Some GOOD NEWS for a change

WASHINGTON - The chairman of the Federal Communications Commission Kevin Martin spoke Tuesday in the Senate Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee's "Future of the Internet" hearing and told lawmakers...

NO new Internet regulations are necessary because the FCC has all the authority it needs to ensure Internet service providers do not discriminate against customers.

Martin said only legal content was protected by the FCC's open-access policy guidelines and filtering out illegal transmissions would be considered reasonable network management that the FCC allows.
