Net neutrality: Progressives erupt over FCC proposal to repeal Obama-era rules - Washington Times:

"Federal Communications Commission Chairman Ajit Pai unveiled Tuesday plans to dismantle the Obama administration’s “net neutrality” rules, prompting cheers from Republicans and outrage from the left.
Mr. Pai, a longtime critic of what he described as the “heavy-handed, utility-style regulations” for the internet, circulated the proposed draft called the Restore Internet Freedom Order among his fellow commissioners at Tuesday’s meeting.
The FCC’s decision, under pressure from President Obama, to impose the regulatory framework in 2015 was a “mistake,” Mr. Pai said."
