ACA: FCC Needs To Restrict Closed Internet Models
The American Cable Association says that if the Federal Communications Commission wants to ensure "unfettered" access to Internet content, it will need to restrict what ACA calls closed Internet models. Specifically, ACA has been taking aim for months at the ESPN360 service. "ACA believes that content distributors such as ESPN360 should live under the same Net Neutrality rules as broadband service providers," ACA President Matthew Polka said. "The foremost principle of Net Neutrality is that consumers can access the legal content of their choice. ESPN360 fails that principle, and any regulation must address that."
