WASHINGTON, D.C.—As expected, the FCC has voted 3-2 to restore net neutrality rules over broadband providers in a move that will likely prompt extensive litigation from cable operators and other groups opposing the decision.
In passing the regulation, FCC chairwoman has argued that the return of net neutrality protections would once again prevent broadband service providers from blocking traffic, slowing down content, or creating pay-to-play internet fast lanes.
