When a former telco lobbyist became FCC chairman I thought the worst. I said on this forum that it looked like the fox was sent to guard the henhouse. Well, I was wrong. We now have a good chance for net neutrality. So I apologize to Mr Wheeler.

He almost did go for the "Internet Fast Lanes," until the John Oliver bit on HBO... I think it was something like 4Mil hits on the FCC comments site that brought the servers to their knees that changed his (and his boss's) tune...
