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.

There are times when it's nice to be wrong. But don't lose faith yet, he may still prove to be just another money grubber.

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...
