The concept of fair and just access to the internet regardless of socio-economic standing is in jeopardy as is AT&T’s proposed buyout of Time Warner Cable. I have not done any research regarding how Trump will handle the FCC in the past, however, this article points out that Trump has a “disdain for federal regulations protecting internet freedom.”
Whether or not the statement is true, the article points out that his new FCC potential appointee, Eisenach, could simply not enforce the net neutrality laws as a strategy to get around the laws.
The article is a downer for the “tech and telecom industry” and who knows what will really happen after January.
