It’s official. The Federal Communications Commission’s repeal of net neutrality protections takes effect today. Among other things, the net neutrality rules required internet service providers offer equal access to all web content. The repeal effectively allows ISPs to block, throttle and prioritize content as they please.

Most notably, the repeal removes the Title II classification of broadband internet that put it in line with essential utilities like electricity. FCC Chairman Ajit Pai continues to suggest that Obama-era rules were “heavy-handed” and negatively impacted innovation.
