Appeals court upholds the FCC's net neutrality rules

• 16 months after the FCC voted 3-2 to impose tough net neutrality rules through its Open Internet order, a federal appeals court has upheld the ruling.The lawsuit challenged the FCC's ability to classify Internet providers as common carriers under Title II regulations, as well as to govern wired and wireless services via the same rules.
• The FCC's rules prohibit the blocking of legal content, the throttling of legal traffic based on content type, and the creation of "fast lanes" for certain types of content. The rules exclude services such as T-Mobile's BingeOn and Verizon's Go90, which don't count against a user's mobile data cap.
• Shares of major U.S. ISPs haven't moved much (if at all) in response to the ruling.
