Verizon tells FCC to address blocking and paid prioritization without Title II reclassification
2014-12-15 20:04:55| IT Services - Topix.net
Verizon has launched its latest salvo in the net neutrality debate, saying that the FCC has enough authority to enforce paid prioritization, blocking and throttling today without having to reclassify service providers under Title II regulation. The service provider acknowledged that the FCC already has the authority to protect consumers from service providers violating these three issues: broadband providers are barred from charging a content provider like Netflix to deliver its service faster than others over its last mile network; service providers should not be able to throttle or slow down traffic based on its source or content; and broadband providers should not block traffic based on the traffic's source, destination or content.
