The net neutrality rules reclassified various internet providers as utility companies and imposed a set of common carrier rules and regulations on them. These regulations include a ban on throttling and blocking the internet traffic, and offering paid fast lanes.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2273\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thetripleplay.net\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-2273\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2273\" class=\"wp-image-2273 size-medium\" title=\"FCC Plans \" src=\"https:\/\/www.thetripleplay.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Internet-Providers-4-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Internet Providers\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thetripleplay.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Internet-Providers-4-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.thetripleplay.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Internet-Providers-4.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-2273\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em><strong>Internet For All<\/strong><\/em><\/p><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The plans of Pai focus on reversing the decision of FCC to classify the various broadband internet providers as utility companies that are regulated under the \u201cTitle II\u201d of the Federal Communications Act. The FCC took this step after a Federal Appeals Court invalidated the earlier regulations in place, which prevented the internet service providers from throttling or blocking the data traffic.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Clyburn warned users that eliminating the regulations might affect the ability of users to access the World Wide Web. \u201cIn a world without net neutrality, your internet service provider could charge you even more to access your preferred websites, or worse, block those sites altogether,\u201d she said. \u201cOr imagine if your broadband provider, who also happens to own a major Spanish language broadcaster, gives priority access to their website, but slows down the speeds of your favorite but competing website. These are the very real scenarios that could happen, if the FCC\u2019s majority and the big broadband providers get their way.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President Trump\u2019s new Federal Communications Commission Chairman Ajit Pai has now announced plans to overturn the 2015 FCC order to dump net neutrality.
