| Subject: LEFTIST BOMB THREAT JOLTS FCC AS INTERNET RULES ROLLED BACK Fri Dec 15, 2017 2:23 am | |
| The U.S. Federal Communications Commission voted along party lines on Thursday to repeal landmark 2015 rules that intended to ensure a free and open Internet, as protesters gather to oppose the change. The 3-2 ruling sets up a court fight over a move that opponents fear will recast the digital landscape. The meeting was evacuated before the vote for about 10 minutes on the basis of what Commission Chairman Ajit Pai called 'advice from security,' and resumed after sniffer dogs checked the building. An FCC official told DailyMail.com that police had concerns after a bomb threat was phoned in.
