Yup.
Finally you got it. The FCC works for us, so they need to understand what we
think. Very simple. Tom Wheeler got this much, even though he was opposed to

who did.
I repeat: then you have no problem. Quit complaining.
- Is the century old doctrine of regulating utilities as
"natural monopolies" still relevant today?
Circling back to square 1? Yes, and I have explained many times why.

The FCC was TOLD to use Title II, to mandate neutrality. They had no option,
other than to hand the special interests whatever they might want, on a silver
