Five options for feds on network neutrality

Here are five options the Federal Communications Commission could take on network neutrality:

1. The so-called “Title II” approach that President Barack Obama endorsed would have the FCC reclassify broadband Internet as a “telecommunications” service instead of an “information” service, which would allow it to draw from stronger rules under Title II of the Communications Act.
2. FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler’s proposal to regulate Internet service providers under legal authority that allows the agency to promote the deployment of broadband.
3. Chairman Wheeler was reportedly close to settling on some type of hybrid approach that used a mix of legal authorities to regulate the Web.
4. Instead of having the FCC write new rules, GOP lawmakers and the two Republican commissioners sitting on the FCC have said Wheeler should wait for Congress to act.
5. Include wireless Internet service in new net neutrality rules.
