[Commentary] The time between Thanksgiving and the end of December is all about one thing – anticipation. (Cue Carly if you wish). Through December, there’s only one topic on everyone’s minds. It can't be helped. The familiar themes float through the consciousness. If only that day would come, wishes that were born a year ago will be fulfilled. Sigh. Oh, wait. You thought I was talking about Christmas? Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. Ha. No, we’re talking about the Dec. 21 meeting of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) meeting at which the Commission is expected to proceed with some sort of open Internet rule. One way to think of this order is as a Christmas miracle. Or a Hanukkah miracle. Either way, ‘tis the season for such things. The fact that leadership of the Commission even decided to go ahead with an Open Internet/net neutrality rule is worthy of song and praise, without even getting into the substance of what said rule contains. Cue the Christmas lights and menorah candles.
