The FCC has regulated Frame Relay, ATM, and SONET and other high speed private line services as Title II services.Those service are in the family of broadband services. The FCC did not regulate Internet service as Title II.There is a deft change in the email below from broadband to Internet. They are not synonymns.From: David Farber <dave () farber net> To: ip <ip () v2 listbox com> Sent: Tue, April 13, 2010 4:58:38 PM Subject: [IP] AT&T: FCC has never had regulatory power over broadband Begin forwarded message: From: dewayne () warpspeed com (Dewayne Hendricks) Date: April 12, 2010 2:44:14 PM EDT To: Dewayne-Net Technology List <xyzzy () warpspeed com>Subject: [Dewayne-Net] AT&T: FCC has never had regulatory power over broadbandAT&T: FCC has never had regulatory power over broadband The Hill By Kim HartAT&T lobbyist Hank Hultquist disputes that the FCC ever had the authority over broadband that it seeks today.His comments in a blog post fuel the fast-growing fight over whether the FCC can or should reclassify broadband as a "Title II" service, rather than the "Title I" service it is today. The D.C. Circuit clearly said last week that the FCC cannot impose net neutrality rules with the current classification.A host of legal experts and lobbyists have made the case that the FCC should be able to revert back to Title II, since the agency used to have regulatory authority over DSL and other broadband services until 2002, when they were reclassified as Title I.<http://thehill.com/blogs/hillicon-valley/technology/91603-atat-fcc-has-never-had-regulatory-power-over-broadband >RSS Feed: <http://www.warpspeed.com/wordpress>------------------------------------------- Archives: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/247/=now RSS Feed: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/247/ Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
