Obama Picks Net Neutrality Backer As FCC Chief

Posted by CmdrTaco on Wednesday March 4, 2009 @01:42AM from the can-we-all-just-get-along-now dept.

Ripit writes "President Obama on Tuesday nominated Julius Genachowski as the nation's top telecommunications regulator, picking a campaign adviser who has divided his career between Washington, D.C., political jobs and working as an Internet executive. Genachowski is likely to continue the Democratic push for more Net neutrality regulations, which are opposed by some conservatives and telecommunications providers. He was a top Obama technology adviser and aided in crafting a technology platform that supported Net neutrality rules."

I'm quite possibly retarded this morning, isn't this an oxymoron (no, not me) : "Net neutrality regulations" And speaking of retarded, let's have the FNG @ the FCC have to turn around and battle fellow dem's on net neutrality. Can you say Diane Feinstein retardedness. Retarded I say. Retardingly retarded.
