FCC had “productive” net neutrality talks with Comcast, AT&T, T-Mobile

The Federal Communications Commission says it has held "productive" meetings with Comcast, AT&T, and T-Mobile about whether data cap exemptions conflict with the goals of network neutrality. The FCC sent letters in Dec asking the three carriers to meet with commission staff by January 15, and all the meetings have happened.

"FCC staff had productive discussions with company representatives as part of a larger policy examination of trends in the market. We cannot comment on the details of individual meetings," FCC spokesperson Kim Hart said. When asked if there will be any action taken against the companies, Hart said, "This is not an enforcement action or investigation, as the Chairman [Tom Wheeler] has made clear. Direct dialogue with companies is an important way in which the Commission can watch and learn, and consistent with our approach in the Open Internet Order."
