House Votes to Repeal Net Neutrality

WASHINGTON (AP) — House Republicans adamant that the government keep its hands off the Internet passed a bill Friday to repeal federal rules barring Internet service providers from blocking or interfering with traffic on their networks.
Republicans, in voting to repeal rules on “network neutrality” set down by the Federal Communications Commission, said the FCC lacked the authority to promulgate the rules. They disputed the need to intervene in an already open Internet and warned that the rules would stifle investment in broadband systems.
“The FCC power grab would allow it to regulate any interstate communication service on barely more than a whim and without any additional input from Congress,” said Rep. Greg Walden, R-Ore., sponsor of the legislation. The Internet, he added, “is open and innovative thanks to the government’s hands-off approach.”
But in what has become a largely partisan battle, the Democrat-controlled Senate is not expected to go along with the House. Sen. John D. Rockefeller, D-W.Va., chairman of the Senate Commerce Committee, said he was “disappointed that House leadership wants to undo the integrity of the FCC’s process and unravel their good work.”
Even if it cleared Congress, the White House has threatened to veto a bill it said puts in doubt whether “the democratic spirit of the Internet will remain intact.”
Rep. Henry Waxman of California, top Democrat on the Energy and Commerce Committee, said nullifying the FCC rules would “give big phone and cable companies control over what websites Americans can visit, what applications they can run and what devices they can use.”
The vote to pass the bill, mainly along party lines, was 240-179.
The FCC rules were adopted on a 3-2 vote last December after years of debate over the federal role in ensuring a free and open Internet. The FCC’s three Democrats voted in support and its two Republicans opposed.
While generally seen as a compromise between technology companies fearing provider limitations on their access to the Internet and the big phone and cable companies insisting they need flexibility to manage Internet traffic, the rules drew a quick legal challenge from Verizon Communications Inc., which said the FCC had overstepped its authority.
A year ago a federal appeals court also ruled that the FCC exceeded its authority in sanctioning Comcast Corp. for discriminating against online file-sharing traffic Comcast said was clogging its network.
The rules prohibit phone and cable companies from favoring or discriminating against Internet content and services, including online calling services such as Skype and Web video services such as Netflix that could compete with their core operations. They require broadband providers to let subscribers access all legal online content.
They do give providers flexibility to manage data on their systems to deal with network congestion and unwanted traffic as long as they publicly disclose those practices. They do not specifically ban “paid prioritization,” where a provider might charge more for faster transmission of data, but they outlaw “unreasonable network discrimination.”
Wireless carriers are also barred from blocking access to any websites or competing services, but they are given more leeway to manage data traffic because wireless systems have less network bandwidth.
Even supporters acknowledged that the rules are mainly about preserving the status quo of a system that is generally working well.
But absent the rules, said Rep. Jared Polis, D-Colo., “there would be a major shift in power on the Internet to the broadband providers from the content providers.”
He said there was legitimate fear among nonprofit and religious groups that they would be consigned to a lower tier because they could not pay a higher price for premium service. “So your Web page from Nike might load faster than your Web page from the Catholic Church because, if there was tiered access, who would be more likely to pay for the speed of the access?”
He also cited the actions of autocratic states such as China in blocking Internet content in saying the government must make clear that providers cannot discriminate against customers because of political or philosophical differences.

Posted on April 8, 2011 at 5:30pmI have been thinking about canceling my Directv, the only thing I watch is glen and fox news. I was going to suggest people cancel theirs in protest for Glenn, but everyone will worry about not being able to watch their fav shows. Which we are probably supporting a lib group. But my cost has went from $65 to $89 and I am getting tired of paying for shows I don’t support and they are taking of the one show I do. But maybe if a few million people cancel, they will call us back and give a lower rate and maybe let us choose the programs we support so we know what we are paying for. Don’t know about the rest of you but I have had it, with them using money to get rid of something I like but keep the shows they want us to watch. Good luck to all. Maybe someone will do a boycott on them for once, they do it and they seem to be winning

Posted on April 8, 2011 at 7:08pmBig deal! Republicans are still playing games. This bill won’t even make to the floor of the Senate for a vote, but even if it did and, by some miracle passed, Obama would veto it. Republicans know that. I’m still insulted that they are caving in to Democrats who only want $38 billion in cuts from Obama’s $3.7 TRILLION budget. Boehner should have demanded $610 billion in cuts, not $61 billion, and then maybe they could have met in the middle. Let’s stop applauding and instead demand that they set the bar a little higher… no, a lot higher.

I am curious if you understand the issue of net neutrality. It is a bit technical and much misunderstood. Now I have nit seen this particular legislation, but if you are for the access you currently have to data, net neutrality may be necessary to keep it. It addresses problems which may not exist but will surely arise as providers improve networks and need a way to pay for the build-outs. Without it a scenario could arise where traffic is preferentially routed to say msnbc rather than The Blaze for web searchs.
