The California State Assembly is voting today on a revised net neutrality bill for the state; one that would likely create a standard that other states will adopt.

Needless to say, cable companies – who successfully lobbied to kill such rules at the federal level – are not excited about the move. In fact, the bill at the heart of it was very nearly derailed by Big Cable lobbyists earlier this year who persuaded lawmakers to pass significant changes in secret.
