"Net Neutrality Restoration Sparks Regulatory Battle"

The U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has voted in favor of reinstating net neutrality, which aims to restore open internet protections for consumers and businesses. The decision, supported by three Democrat commissioners and opposed by two Republican commissioners, marks a reversal of the FCC's previous move to dismantle net neutrality under the Trump administration. FCC Chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel stated that the proposed rules would prevent blocking, throttling, and paid prioritization, ensuring that the internet remains open and accessible for all. The next step involves a public comment period on the net neutrality proposals, followed by a review and implementation of the internet protections.
