Public Interest Group Challenges Net Neutrality Rules

Public interest group Free Press filed a petition for review in the First Circuit Court of Appeals in Boston, challenging U.S. Internet rules set to go into effect Nov. 20. The rules, adopted last December by the Federal Communications Commission and published in the Federal Register last week, forbid broadband providers from blocking legal content but leave flexibility for providers to manage their networks.
