Comcast, Verizon Groups Fight California’s Internet Law
Industry trade groups representing Comcast (CMCSA), Charter Communications (CHTR), Verizon (VZ), and other Internet access providers have sued to block California’s new Internet regulations. Last month, California adopted rules that prohibit Internet providers from throttling traffic or introducing paid prioritization. The move came in response to the move by the Federal Communications Commission (or FCC) to do away with the Obama-era open Internet regulations—better known as net neutrality rules.
