    FCC To Cave On Net Neutrality Promise

    WTF?!

    Late Monday, a majority of the FCC's commissioners indicated that they're going to vote with Chairman Julius Genachowski for a toothless Net Neutrality rule.

    According to all reports, the rule, which will be voted on during tomorrow's FCC meeting, falls drastically short of earlier pledges by President Obama and the FCC Chairman to protect the free and open Internet.

    The rule is so riddled with loopholes that it's become clear that this FCC chairman crafted it with the sole purpose of winning the endorsement of AT&T and cable lobbyists, and not defending the interests of the tens of millions of Internet users.

    Continues here...

              if strangling the last vital part of your economy to benefit a few isn't a perfect sign of the end of an empire, i don't know what is.

                Yes because under McCain/Palin we would have got a REAL net neutrality law. Because you know Republicans care more about people than big business.
