Default Democrat Sweep Good News For Net Neutrality

Although in the real world, Net Neutrality wasn't a partisan issue, in this now-defunct coin-operated Congress, it most certainly was. Republicans consistently sought to squash the issue in committees, pressuring other party members to fall in line with the telcos that contributed most to their campaigns.

With the Democrats taking back Congress in a landmark victory, that may change and Net Neutrality may get the protection over a million petitioners have sought.

*Disclaimer: I am a member of neither party; I generally hate them both...this is just an issue on which I happen to side with one them.
