NCTA: FCC Must Reject Alarmist Calls For Title II

The sky is not falling, Internet-wise, and regulators should act accordingly when it comes to imposing any new network neutrality regulations, regulations cable operators aren't persuaded are even needed.

That was the gist of the message from the National Cable & Telecommunications Association in advance of its comments on the FCC's latest effort to get open Internet rules by a DC federal appeals court last January.

"Contrary to what some alarmists may claim, these are not drastic times, and they certainly do not call for drastic measures like a wholesale change in our approach to broadband regulation," said NCTA.
