The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) on Wednesday approved the Biden administration\u2019s plan to give the federal government full control of the internet under the guise of preventing \u201cdigital discrimination.\u201d<\/p>\n
The agency issued a press release confirming it will implement the \u201cfirst bipartisan broadband access anti-discrimination law.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Federal Communications Commission has adopted final rules to prevent digital discrimination of access to broadband services based on income level, race, ethnicity, color, religion, or national origin. Under the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, the FCC is required to adopt rules to ensure that all Americans have equal access to reliable, high-speed broadband services without discrimination based on the characteristics listed in the statute,\u201d the agency stated.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe new rules establish a framework to facilitate equal access to broadband internet services by preventing digital discrimination of access. Under these rules, the FCC can protect consumers by directly addressing companies\u2019 policies and practices if they differentially impact consumers\u2019 access to broadband internet access service or are intended to do so, and by applying these protections to ensure communities see equitable broadband deployment, network upgrades, and maintenance,\u201d the agency continued.<\/p>\n
\u201cUnder the new rules, the Commission can investigate possible instances of discrimination of broadband access, work with companies to solve problems, facilitate mediation, and, when necessary, penalize companies for violating the rules. The FCC will review consumer complaints of digital discrimination of access through an improved consumer complaint portal and staff will meet monthly to assess trends in complaint patterns. Finally, the Commission adopted model policies and best practices that will support states, local and Tribal governments in their efforts to combat digital discrimination,\u201d the press released added.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs feared, the FCC has authorized Biden\u2019s Woke Takeover of the Internet,\u201d Kyle Becker writes.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is how Woke politics \u2014 rooted in Critical Race Theory \u2014 is driving a complete takeover of all aspects of American life. \u2018Equity\u2019 and identity politics are being used to subvert the nation\u2019s institutions. The first step to a globalist shadow cabal taking over this country is take over and control our information. Today, we saw the Biden regime take a bold step towards that corrupt end. Alarming,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
The Blaze<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0reports:<\/p>\n When regimes capture power, it\u2019s often not in the dramatic fashion of the storming of the Bastille. Instead, it\u2019s a bureaucratic takeover, hidden in jargon and filled with clich\u00e9s, for the greater good. The Federal Communications Commission is poised to vote today on a sweeping set of new rules called the \u201cPreventing Digital Discrimination Order.\u201d<\/p>\n The 200-page report recommends implementing an exhaustive array of new restrictions that will alter the internet forever. It springs from section 60506 of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act 2021. This legislation was meant to infuse some federal dollars into America\u2019s sagging internet infrastructure. Unfortunately, this vote will grant the FCC the power to control nearly every aspect of internet infrastructure in the name of our secular gods of diversity, equity, and inclusion.<\/p>\n The TL;DR of the obtuse rules is the ability to censor, control, and regulate internet service providers based on vague laws around equity. Most disturbing is that it doesn\u2019t have to be \u201cdiscrimination\u201d as it\u2019s generally understood but rather \u201cdisparate outcomes,\u201d meaning all internet infrastructure must produce perfect equity or face the wrath of the United States government.<\/p>\n The agency\u2019s unelected officials will convene to deliberate on regulations to integrate the latest progressive ideals regarding race and identity into the internet landscape. It\u2019s expected to pass 3-2. It will stifle innovation and impede internet access opportunities, all in pursuit of achieving equity.<\/p>\n If approved, this would mark the first time the FCC would gain the authority to oversee various aspects of every ISP\u2019s service termination policies, including customer credit usage, account history, credit checks, and account termination, among other related matters.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Read more at: 100percentfedup.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) on Wednesday approved the Biden administration\u2019s plan to give the federal government full control of the internet under the guise of preventing \u201cdigital discrimination.\u201d The agency issued a press release confirming it will implement the \u201cfirst bipartisan broadband access anti-discrimination law.\u201d \u201cThe Federal Communications Commission has adopted final rules to … Continue reading UPDATE: FCC Approves Plan To Give Government Control Of Internet<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":21347,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-24623","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/setapartbytruth.org\/wordpress-watchman\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/watching-300x100-300x100-1.jpg","jetpack-related-posts":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p8fAkI-6p9","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/setapartbytruth.org\/wordpress-watchman\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24623","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/setapartbytruth.org\/wordpress-watchman\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/setapartbytruth.org\/wordpress-watchman\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/setapartbytruth.org\/wordpress-watchman\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/setapartbytruth.org\/wordpress-watchman\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=24623"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/setapartbytruth.org\/wordpress-watchman\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24623\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":24624,"href":"https:\/\/setapartbytruth.org\/wordpress-watchman\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24623\/revisions\/24624"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/setapartbytruth.org\/wordpress-watchman\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/21347"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/setapartbytruth.org\/wordpress-watchman\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=24623"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/setapartbytruth.org\/wordpress-watchman\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=24623"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/setapartbytruth.org\/wordpress-watchman\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=24623"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
