The Obama-era FCC rules for .NET Neutrality have just been thrown away by the modern Trump FCC.

Ajit Pai, who spearheads the Federal Communications Commission, shepherded this through. Pseudosolid .NET Neutrality was on shaky grounds to begin with and it was easy for Mr. Pai to put a pin to the balloon. This is happening the same day that Disney buys Fox. The trend towards a post-Microsoft media/tech oligarchy continues. Remember when everyone badmouthed big evil Microsoft back in the 1990s? They seem so tame anymore.
