Washington state has passed laws protecting net neutrality
It’s the first state law to be enforceable against ISPs
...The FCC prohibited state laws from contradicting the decision, so it’s very likely ISPs will sue Washington state over this new law to find out if the FCC does have the power to preempt the move.
The FCC’s order that killed net neutrality claimed that individual states implementing their own net neutrality laws would cause too much difficulty and confusion if rules were made on a state by state basis. It’s worth noting, though, that the FCC has previously lost on a ruling to preempt state laws that ban municipal ISPs.

“The states have a full right to protect their citizens,”
Thank you very much, we're done here.
The internet has now become a public right, not a benefit. You can't even get employed by Walmart w/o the internet.
It is a utility just like sewer, power and water - we will go to war over this.

Sure...
Still, maybe I shouldn't have spent all day yesterday watching Sam ('I'm not having a meltdown') Nunberg have a meltdown. I woke up this morning screaming "Tell Mueller I'm not going to rat on my buddies, I don't care what you do to me."
I scared the hell out of the cat, and how she won't come out from under the bed.
