US Department of Justice takes California to court after governor signs net neutrality into law
2018-10-01 09:04:00| Telecompaper Headlines
(Telecompaper) The US Justice Department has taken legal action against California after the state's governor Jerry Brown signed into law the net neutrality legislation passed earlier by state lawmakers, a filing at the Justice Department shows. The news was first reported by the Washington Post. The California law, which is expected to go into effect on 1 January, aims to stop internet providers from blocking or throttling legal apps and websites, and prohibits the prioritisation of content. It also bans zero-rating for specific apps in a point going further than the nation's 2015 net neutrality laws, since revoked by the FCC in 2017.

2018-08-21 10:21:00| Telecompaper Headlines
(Telecompaper) A group of 23 US states has filed a lawsuit seeking a court order to reinstate the former net neutrality rules in the US. The suit, led by the New York Attorney General and filed at the US Court of Appeals for the Washington, DC Circuit, seeks to vacate and reverse the FCC's order which took effect in June, overturning much of the internet protections. A separate suit led by Mozilla and civil society groups was also filed, seeking the same outcome.
