You are hereWash Post gets net neutrality regs are UNJUSTIFIED -- Must read: "The FCC's Heavy Hand"
Submitted by Scott Cleland on Mon, 2009-09-28 10:55
The FCC Chairman's proposed preemptive net neutrality/open Internet regulations are unjustified.
Kudos to the Post for great clarity of thought in getting right to the crux of the problem with the proposed regulations in asking the simple bottom line question: "Is this intervention necessary?"
The Post is also dead on in exposing the severity and intrusiveness of the intervention that the FCC Chairman is proposing, despite assurances to the contrary.
Lastly, the editorial belies the FCC Chairman's claim that the FCC won't overreach, by accurately calling the proposed regs for what they truly are: "attempts to micromanage what has been a vibrant and well-functioning marketplace." Simply, the old adage is true here: "if it ain't broke, don't fix it."
