The Trump administration on Tuesday set in motion its plan to repeal virtually all of the U.S. government’s existing net neutrality rules — a move that will soon deliver another major deregulatory win to telecom giants like AT&T, Charter, Comcast* and Verizon.

In a proposal from Ajit Pai, the Republican chairman of the Federal Communications Commission, the country’s telecom agency is set to eliminate much of its own role in ensuring that broadband providers don’t block, slow down or otherwise interfere with web traffic.
