Departmental Bulletin Paper

On August 20,2008, FCC made a decision to order Comcast Co叩oration to end its prior\ndiscriminatory network management practices, and affiumed its authority to protect the Internet\nunder Title I of the Communications Act of 1934. In this order, FCC states that it has discretion\nto choose between adjudication and rulemaking, and can exercise its ancillary jurisdiction over\na broadband Intemet access service provider's unreasonable network management practices,\neven though it is not a common carrier under Title II of the Act. However, on April 6,2010,\nUnited States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit vacated the order, on the\nground that FCC had failed to tie its assertion of ancillary authority over Comcast's Intemet\nservice to any 'statutorily mandated responsibility}. FCC has tried to reclassify broadband\nInternet access service as telecoumunications service, which has proved to be quite difficult. Goveument authorities should make the additional framework that is necessary to preserve the\nvibrant and open architecture of the Internet, and foster its progress in the future.
