FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler: This Is How We Will Ensure Net Neutrality | WIRED

This is a GREAT day for us denizens of the internet. An astonishingly passionate stance by the FCC. I'm blown away.

THANK YOU, Mr. Wheeler.

Using this authority, I am submitting to my colleagues the strongest open internet protections ever proposed by the FCC. These enforceable, bright-line rules will ban paid prioritization, and the blocking and throttling of lawful content and services. I propose to fully apply—for the first time ever—those bright-line rules to mobile broadband. My proposal assures the rights of internet users to go where they want, when they want, and the rights of innovators to introduce new products without asking anyone’s permission.
