FCC Chairman proposes Title II Internet regulation, including both
landline and mobile Internet

(Wired): http://www.wired.com/2015/02/fcc-chairman-wheeler-net-neutrality/

    "Originally, I believed that the FCC could assure internet openness
     through a determination of "commercial reasonableness" under Section
     706 of the Telecommunications Act of 1996. While a recent court
     decision seemed to draw a roadmap for using this approach, I became
     concerned that this relatively new concept might, down the road, be
     interpreted to mean what is reasonable for commercial interests, not
     consumers.  That is why I am proposing that the FCC use its Title II
     authority to implement and enforce open internet protections."

I think many of us owe Tom Wheeler an apology.
