FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski stirred up the Net neutrality pot last week with his
speech at the Brookings Institution where he pledged to create new rules for governing the Internet. The FCC boss implied that because the Internet is such a big part of the lives of Americans, its management cannot be left to the marketplace. He noted that “millions of us depend upon it every day: at home, at work, in school” and argued that “the FCC must be a smart cop on the beat preserving a free and open Internet.”
