Just call me slow. So the FCC does not want to regulate content, just the on off ramps. Well if I am excluded from getting on the damn ramp you do not have to worry about the content. Equal access? So if 10 cars want to get on the so called “ramp” to get on the highway at the same tine, clearly, everyone does not make it. Correct me if I am wrong, but did not the courts rule the FCC has no control over the Internet? Call me cynical, first step– remember the Progressives mantra “Incremental” .. yes, control by “Incremental”. Just another Czar.
At the National Association of Broadcasters Service Awards on Monday, CNSNews.com asked Clyburn to what extent the federal government should regulate the Internet.
“When we talk about the Internet and the interaction, we are strictly talking about what we call the on/off ramps,” she said. “We are not talking about content. So we are insuring, what we are attempting to do at the FCC is ensure that every person has an equal engagement, that every single individual when they pay their money or when they sign on line, that they have an equal engagement.

This is just the beginning if we allow them to get away with this, once the FCC has their foot in the door you can count on internet content regulating in the future. And yes, the courts did rule that the FCC did not have the power to regulate the internet; yet another example of the Obama regime usurping rights and expanding powers which were not granted to them.

Steve- you are so right. They are desparadoes when it comes to the internet. Look what happened in the Middle East… it controls what info gets out.

The Obama administration knows that the dissemination of information via the Internet is truth-telling about this administration and will do ANYTHING to curb that dissemination.

Right on AOW, it is the one and only thing standing in his way. It is Bloggers and conservative Radio who are revealing the truth. He will find a way or make one to control it. You bet.

I’m a little slow on the draw this morning. By “on/off” ramps it seems to me they are talking bandwidth. Don’t they already control that?

This is a guess but.. I think the position will be if I have access to super speed, then everyone must have the same super speed.. the same ramp. Right now, we pay for how much content we choose in some part, on our TV, “Or when they sign on” is the operative phrase she uses.

That’s right – I seem to remember a rant by Van Jones about how Internet access is a “right” for everyone.
