Here is the link of the 400 pages. The word enforcement comes up at least 200 times.

Remember SOPA and how it was defeated because people got upset?
Well, say hello to SOPA under the guise of Net Neutrality.
Change the name, change the perception...

Keep in mind 3 unelected people..., outside the U.S. Constitution..... outside their jurisdiction.... are illegally trying to bypass the Legislative branch, the Executive Branch and create new Regulation they could never pass through congress.

They are basically saying we can do anything we want.

The only thing you need to know about that document is that the FCC DOES NOT forebear Section 201 of the 1996 Telecom Act. And Section 201 gives it the power to determine what is just and reasonable about everything.

It really starts to heat up on page 157. That is a tentative starting point to reading the document.

Paragraph 3 of the introduction, for your amusement (or not):

3. Likewise, innovation at the edge moves forward unabated. For example, 2010 was the first year that the majority of Netflix customers received their video content via online streaming rather than via DVDs in red envelopes. Today, Netflix sends the most peak downstream traffic in North America of any company. Other innovative service providers have experienced extraordinary growth— Etsy reports that it has grown from $314 million in merchandise sales in 2010 to $1.35 billion in merchandise sales in 2013. And, just as importantly, new kinds of innovative businesses are busy being born. In the video space alone, in just the last sixth months, CBS and HBO have announced new plans for streaming their content free of cable subscriptions; DISH has launched a new package of channels that includes ESPN, and Sony is not far behind; and Discovery Communications founder John Hendricks has announced a new over-the-top service providing bandwidth-intensive programming. This year, Amazon took home two Golden Globes for its new series “Transparent.”

The folks who brought you the Obamacare web site are now going to be in control of our internet access.

What could possibly go wrong?

FCC Minority Report Warns That New Internet Tax May Be Coming Soon

http://www.cnsnews.com/news/article/rudy-takala/fcc-minority-report-warns-new-internet-tax-may-be-coming-soon

“Net neutrality proponents are already bragging that it will turn the FCC into the ‘Department of the Internet,’ Republican Commissioner Ajit Pai wrote in an exhaustive 63-page dissent that lamented the FCC’s ruling for reasons ranging from higher taxes and fees to the plan’s questionable legality.

“The Internet has become a powerful force for freedom,” Pai began. “So it is sad to witness the FCC’s unprecedented attempt to replace that freedom with government control….This Order imposes intrusive government regulations that won’t work to solve a problem that doesn’t exist using legal authority the FCC doesn’t have.”

How many new heavily armed SWAT team enforcers are earmarked for Net Neutrality?
