Cool. Meaningless until codified in law but cool for now. Until the board flips again and they nullify the order again.
You gotta enjoy it for less than… Check calendar… 7 months at least
the up side of flip flopping is that it still results in some amount of effective net neutrality… in order to develop products and build customers for them, ISPs need to actually be sure they’re going to be able to continue to offer them… industries aren’t going to rely on fast lanes, etc until they’re pretty sure they aren’t going to go away
I post this in offering to the internet gods, that this may be the first step which leads to an actually meaningful change.
You’re a hero!
Takin’ it back! ❤️
Yet another great example of why voting matters.
Exactly. It took until September for the democrats to have majority. They started pushing for it in October. Republican Brendan Carr went to great lengths to oppose the restoration, slowing progress for six months.

Oh, and fuck Ajit Pai and his orange overseer for repealing it in the first place.
the industry claims that the lack of change in that period indicates that federal rules are unnecessary and fear they will impede investments in innovation.
Lol what innovation could an ISP make that is good? We want them to be dumb and simple. Their job is to route our traffic at the limits of the speed of light.
there is an argument that prioritising traffic would be a good thing - pay more for high priority video calls etc, or pay less for things you don’t care about like bulk download
… but we can’t trust ISPs to wield these powers responsibly and in ways that’s good for consumers
Thanks Biden
You better vote for him in the next rounds too, or it’s going to be see saw.
Always nice to see some good news.
Good news!
