FCC vs Internet: A panel of 22 Attorneys testified treatment ζητώντας από ένα εφετείο στην Ουάσιγκτον να επανεξετάσει την απόφαση της Ομοσπονδιακής Επιτροπής Επικοινωνιών (Federal Communications Commission ή FCC) να κατslowto the rules of net neutrality.
The FCC voted against internet neutrality regulations that prevent ISPs from selectively slowing down Internet trafficnetwork, and allow its unlimited user to those who have the funds.
Despite the fact that almost all consumers and businesses of net neutrality advocates, FCC Chairman Ajit Pai, managed to win a vote in December to repeal the regulations.
The attorney general of New York Eric Schneiderman, who heads the group that filed the suit, said that it is illegal for the Federal Communications Commission to make "arbitrary and whimsical" policy changes such as network neutrality.
The prosecution lawsuit against the FCC and the federal government is asking the US Circuit Court of Appeals to revise the FCC's decision to prevent network neutrality.
"Removing network neutrality will turn ISPs into gatekeepers - allowing them to profit from consumers by controlling what they see, do and say online," said Schneiderman.
The Mozilla Foundation also filed a lawsuit Tuesday on the US Circuit Court of Appeals asking for a revision of the abolition imposed by the Federal Communications Commission.
"Mozilla is seeking a review of the order on the grounds that it is arbitrary and whimsical within the meaning of the Administrative Procedure Act," the lawsuit states.
