TL;DR Summary

The FCC is set to vote on April 25 on reinstating net neutrality rules, which would prevent internet providers from blocking or throttling internet traffic or creating paid fast lanes. With Democrats holding a majority on the commission, the proposal is expected to pass, despite opposition from major internet providers. The reinstatement would give the FCC Title II authority over broadband services, allowing it to oversee and protect consumer data, ensure an open internet, and address security concerns. The debate over net neutrality has shifted, with some GOP-led states treating social media companies as common carriers, and the proposed rules would not prevent streaming services from using content delivery networks.
