Telecommunications advocates Gigi Sohn and Robert McDowell talked about internet regulation. The Federal Communications Commission was scheduled to vote on December 14, 2017, on reversing rules adopted in 2015 by former FCC Chair Tom Wheeler.(D) These “net neutrality” rules required internet providers to allow content providers equal access to networks and reclassified broadband service as a utility, thus making providers subject to stricter regulation.
