"Net Neutrality Makes a Comeback: Biden Administration Takes Action"
The Biden administration plans to reinstate net neutrality rules that were repealed during the Trump administration. The earlier open internet rules, known as net neutrality, prohibited broadband internet suppliers from blocking or slowing online services and charging higher prices for priority treatment. The chairwoman of the Federal Communications Commission, Jessica Rosenworcel, announced the proposal to restore net neutrality and will release the full text of the proposed rule on Thursday. The commission will vote on the draft proposal on Oct. 19, with a final vote expected next year. The issue of net neutrality has sparked public interest and political debate, with supporters viewing it as a necessary restraint on corporate power and a means to keep the internet open and fair.
