•The Frightening Stakes of this Halloween’s Net Neutrality Hearing
71% Informative
The future of the open internet is in danger from broadband companies that control internet access in most of the U.S. These companies would love to use their oligopoly power to charge users and websites additional fees for “premium” internet access.
But the lure of making more money without investing in better service or infrastructure is hard for broadband services like Comcast and AT&T to resist.
Team Telecom argues that Congress clearly delegated that decision-making power to the FCC .
The court will likely issue a decision in the first half of 2025 , so the specter of uncertainty will be with us for some time.
The losing side will be able to request that the full Sixth Circuit rehear the case.
