McDowell Skeptical of Industry Support for Net Neutrality

摘要

FCC Commissioner Robert McDowell questioned how much industry support exists for the net nneutrality rules that the commission approved last month over a strong dissent by him and the nother Republican commissioner, Meredith Baker. McDowell also said at a TechFreedom nsymposium that he hopes the order will be stayed. Chairman Julius Genachowski highlighted nindustry support for the order when it was approved. McDowell questioned the amount and ndepth of the support. "Why did a small, very small, pool of corporate entities decide to very nreluctantly issue statements of perhaps acquiescence more than support, you’d have to ask nthem," he said. "They have to continue to do business before the FCC. Maybe that has nsomething to do with it."
