My statement to the FCC on Net Neutrality

As a former FCC employee of the Cable TV Bureau, I'm all in on Net neutrality. As an Internet user, net neutrality is vitally important to me, my family and my community. The FCC should use its Title II authority to protect it.

ISPs should not be able to profit from so called fast lanes. The internet was designed so that the end user pays, not the content providers upstream. The ISPs want a drastic and draconian change to the business model of the internet. They are trying to use their monopoly power and this is why the FCC was created - to protect communication from monopoly power - be it Bell or CableTV. Please protect the internet and the business model that has server the US and the world so well.

Thank you.
