WASHINGTON – Momentum appears to have been building at the Federal Communications Commission for aggressive net neutrality rules similar to the type endorsed by President Barack Obama in November.

Part of the fear is that if Comcast or Cox were allowed to start charging content companies for faster, smoother service, then smaller start-ups might find themselves at a disadvantage, while the larger firms could pass the costs of those deals onto their customers. But a new study suggests that strong controls on Internet providers might force Americans to pay more for their Internet, anyway.
