Late Monday, a majority of the FCC's commissioners indicated that
they're going to vote with Chairman Julius Genachowski for a toothless
Net Neutrality rule.
According to all reports, the rule, which will be voted on during
tomorrow's FCC meeting, falls drastically short of earlier pledges by
President Obama and the FCC Chairman to protect the free and open
Internet.
The rule is so riddled with loopholes that it's become clear that this
FCC chairman crafted it with the sole purpose of winning the
endorsement of AT&T and cable lobbyists, and not defending the
interests of the tens of millions of Internet users.

What does this mean? It means that if an ISP wants to, it can prioritize certain websites over others.

Net Neutrality, biggest joke ever. The less of it we get, the better.
