FCC defends new Net neutrality proposal

2014-04-24 20:52:24| InfoWorld: Top News

A new Net neutrality proposal from the U.S. Federal Communications Commission meets the goals of past efforts and does not destroy open Internet principles, as critics have feared, FCC officials said Thursday. Critics have said the new proposal, to be released Thursday, would gut Net neutrality principles because it would allow some traffic management. But the proposed rulemaking will ask for public input about whether so-called pay-for-priority traffic agreements between broadband carriers and Web content providers are commercially reasonable, an FCC official said.
