Could Court's Campaign Finance Ruling Affect Net Neutrality? - PCWorld - 0 views

  • Under the FCC's proposed net neutrality rules, broadband providers would be prohibited from discriminating against any legal Web content and applications. Some net neutrality opponents have argued that the FCC, by forcing them to carry other content, would violate their free-speech rights, and the Citizens United ruling makes that a stronger argument.
  • An FCC spokeswoman declined to comment on the Citizens United case, but Wendy is not alone in making this free-speech argument against net neutrality. Even before the Citizens United ruling, some conservative think tanks, the National Cable and Telecommunications Association and constitutional law professor Laurence Tribe have made similar
  • Free Press' Wright said those arguments confuse the role that ISPs have as Web site publishers with their role as network operators. She acknowledged that broadband providers have limited functions, such as publishing their own Web sites or blogs, that enjoy free-speech rights.

  • The FCC should not only avoid rules prohibiting ISPs from blocking illegal file trading, but it should actively encourage ISPs to do so, the RIAA said.
  • Other groups called on the FCC to stay out of the copyright enforcement business. If ISPs are required to check for copyright infringement, they could interfere with legal online activities, said six digital rights and business groups, including Public Knowledge, the Consumer Electronics Association and the Electronic Frontier Foundation.

  • ISPs are "poorly placed to determine whether or not transfers of content are infringing or otherwise unlawful, a task generally reserved to attorneys, courts, and law enforcement," the groups said in a filing with the FCC. "In short, the issue raised by broadening the 'reasonable network management' exception to include copyright enforcement and the blocking of unlawful content is not whether ISPs may undertake these efforts, but rather whether they may inflict collateral damage on lawful traffic when they do so."

    The RIAA argues ISP's should perform copyright enforcement, and claim Net Neutrality blocks such efforts.
