FCC’s Closed-Door Net Neutrality Meetings Break Down
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has called off its closed-door meetings with various tech companies after they failed to reach common ground on net neutrality. "We have called off this round of stakeholder discussions. It has been productive on several fronts, but has not generated a robust framework to preserve the openness and freedom of the Internet – one that drives innovation, investment, free speech, and consumer choice," Edward Lazarus, the FCC’s chief of staff, said in a statement. "All options remain on the table as we continue to seek broad input on this vital issue."
