Network Neutrality is idiotic crony policy that DC’s Big Tech cronies have spent a decade-plus trying to jam down our throats.
The DC cronies first briefly tried the proper way to impose Net Neutrality. Which is to pass law through Congress. That got them absolutely nowhere.
So the DC cronies reverted to their innate authoritarianism. And started having unelected Federal Communications Commission (FCC) commissioners illegally jam it down our throats. Illegally? Because the FCC commissioners can not do it unless and until Congress passes law authorizing them to do it.
