The F.C.C. has every right and ability to give itself the power to regulate broadband. They just failed miserably to do so this time around. What they needed to do was fix the mistake they made in 2002 by changing the classification of broadband back to a tellecomunications service. They sort of did that in 2010 but it was half assed and led to them lossing on Tuesday.

Agencies don't have rights, and they certainly don't have the right to give themselves more power. Sadly, they do have the ability since its rare that they get smacked by either the legislature or judiciary. Regardless, I'm glad that the FCC fucked itself over on some sort of technicality. Maybe the USDA can take a crack at it next by declaring the internet a member of the legume family.

You see but they actually can and probably will give themselves the power to regulate ISPs. Just like they took away that power in 2002

I have a question for you. Are you simply happy that they lost the case, or are you against net neutrality?
