Surprise, surprise but it seems that against all odds the FCC is going to be proposing new rules regarding network neutrality this coming Monday.
Amy Schatz in a post at the Wall Street Journal says that FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski will be outlining the new rules that would prevent Internet providers like AT&T, Verizon and Comcast from slowing Web traffic or selectively blocking it.
If adopted, rules to promote so-called net neutrality could be a win for consumers who want to get movies online or access big data files, and in turn benefit Internet companies like Google Inc. that want to offer new video or other services online.
While this is still only at a proposal stage it is encouraging to see that consumers actually stand a chance of seeing something like net neutrality actually come about.
