Federal Communications Commission chairman William E. Kennard has reiterated that the FCC has no intention of making computer users pay long-distance fees for dial-up access to the Internet, despite the FCC's recent decision that dial-up calls to the Internet are interstate communications subject to federal jurisdiction. "I want to say this as clearly as I can ... As long as I'm chairman of the Federal Communications Commission this agency will not regulate the Internet." (Associated Press 12 Mar 99)
