I have mixed feelings about it. It is not about the attempts to ensure free and open access, it is about the fine print when a branch of government, in this case the FCC, just says it suddenly has some power it never had before without Congressional oversight. Isn't this a similar situation where people complained about other entities overstepping their perceived bounds? I am more bothered by the fact they just took it upon themselves to begin to regulate something that they never regulated before.
