Today: Network Neutrality and the FCC’s Internet Policy Statement: Biased Thoughts from a Lawyer Working with SavetheInternet.co

Today, the Berkman Center's luncheon guest was Marvin Ammori, the General Counsel of media reform organization Free Press. Marvin talked about "Network Neutrality and the FCC’s Internet Policy Statement: Biased Thoughts from a Lawyer Working with SavetheInternet.com & Free Press."

From Marvin:

I have some thoughts and lingering questions about the role of the FCC’s Internet Policy Statement, which is not an enforceable rule, in the regulatory and legislative battles over network neutrality. This Policy Statement has been central to debates in which my organization has been actively involved—including debate over the 2006 Snowe-Dorgan amendment to legislate network neutrality, major telecommunications mergers, potential state network neutrality regulation, and the Comcast-BitTorrent controversy. I would like to discuss its central role in these debates, the many questions it fails to answer or even pose, and what role I believe the Policy Statement should play.

Also be sure to check out the Q + A with Marvin, where he discussed a few of the items which he talked about at the luncheon.
