This bill honestly seems pretty well put together. I was wary when I read it went beyond the FCC’s regulations wrt zero-rating, but apparently that’s actually allowed as long as the zero-rating is application-agnostic, which sounds good for that quaint old-fashioned free market competition.

> Wiener said he negotiated amendments with the committee that kept "all key provisions of the bill intact."
Anybody know how close to the truth this is? It sounds a bit less likely than I would hope.

I think it's funny: AT&T: Oh you don't need to do this, silly we're already compliant...no please don't...we mean it, we'll be good... --- if it was something they plan on enforcing anyways, why fight it so damn hard?

To my eye Internet services look like interstate commerce and therefore would be the jurisdiction of the federal government. I'd appreciate it if someone with a little expertise could explain how the law works in this regard.

As CA Comcast customer, I was really hoping for this. Of course, Republicans can't be mad at this, right? State's rights, and all.
