U.S. Proposes Net Neutrality Rules
U.S. to introduce net neutrality rules: report
The top U.S. telecommunications regulator is set to introduce net neutrality rules that will prohibit internet providers from selectively blocking or slowing web traffic, according to a report.
Federal Communications Commission chairman Julius Genachowski is expected to outline the proposal, which will require internet providers to treat all traffic equally, in a speech on Monday, the Wall Street Journal reported on Friday. The rules will also extend to the wireless networks owned by companies such as AT&T and Verizon, as well as wired networks run by cable companies such as Comcast.
Some American internet providers, both wired and wireless, have prevented customers from certain uses of the internet. The FCC last year rebuked Comcast for blocking peer-to-peer technology and ordered the company to stop the practice. Wireless companies also currently block customers from using bandwidth-intensive services such as file-sharing on their phones.
The FCC has for some time held unofficial principles relating to net neutrality, or the prevention of seeing service providers pick winners and losers on the internet. The regulator will now enshrine those principles as official rules, the newspaper reported.
Internet providers are sure to oppose the move and will argue that they have the right to manage how their networks work. An appeal by Comcast over the FCC's sanctions is still working its way through the courts.
Both Genachowski and U.S. President Barack Obama are on the record as supportive of the need for net neutrality rules. Obama appointed Genachowski, a fellow Harvard law alumni, to head the FCC earlier this year.
The net neutrality issue has also been hotly contested in Canada. The Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission held public hearings on the subject this summer after making a controversial ruling that allowed Bell Canada to continue slowing peer-to-peer software last year. The regulator is expected to announce its findings from the hearings by the end of the year.
The Liberals, NDP and Green Party have voiced support for net neutrality rules in Canada. The Conservatives have not yet voiced an opinion on the issue.Originally Posted by David Lynch

The government seriously needs to LEAVE the god damn private sector alone! They have NO RIGHT to tell a business HOW to run itself. This is nothing more than the first step to govenment controling the internet. Soon they will want to start taxing and censoring it. Its fucking rediculous.
Let them hate me, so long as they fear me...

Good. Web neutrality is something that absolutely needs to be regulated. I was truly afraid of what was happening with we providers and hopefully this will be a step back on track.

This is the first steps of the United States government in getting control over the internet. It's none of the governments business of what we can and cannot do.
And the correct term for the guy; the supposed regulator is a Czar. Obama has round 35 to 40 Czars now; why the hell do we have Czars in our government. None of them would pass a FBI background check and they are a bunch of fascist and extremist who hate what the U.S. stands for.
