The FCC will reveal vote to repeal net neutrality this week

The new rules are expected to be announced on Wednesday, whilst most Americans are distracted by getting home to loved ones for Thanksgiving.

This will then be followed by a vote on 10 December, which would see the 2015 rules designed to protect the internet being torn down.

[...] The important point, as we've said before, is that once the genie is out of the bottle, getting it back in is almost impossible and for our readers outside the US, don't think this doesn't affect you - everything that passes through US servers will be affected in some way and will knock on to you.

        I will never lie to you. I will never tell you something I do not believe. I will never put anyone’s interests ahead of yours. Never, ever, ever. So while sometimes I can be too honest, George Papadopoulos is the exact opposite: he never tells the truth. One lie after another, and getting worse each passing day. Check the DEMS!
