FCC details plan to restore the net neutrality rules repealed by Ajit Pai::Democrats finally have 3-2 majority needed to regulate ISPs as common carriers.
Net neutrality was never intended to turn ISPs into public utilities. Its purpose was to turn them into “common carriers,” which means they must treat all traffic equally.
You’re not wrong, but your distinction is meaningless since common carriers in the US are often regulated by the same governing rules and very often the same governing bodies as public utilities.
I do not believe that is correct.
That gives a better, more thorough explanation of what the FCC is aiming to do. While public utilities are governed by regulations much like a common carrier is, it won’t result in what you were stating in your original comment (i.e. the same level of internal transparency that public utilities must comply with).
