For those who support net neutrality, 2017 has been a tough year. Earlier this year, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) proposed a massive repeal of net neutrality laws, a repeal the commission approved in a 3-2 vote on December 14.

It was a long road to this point. Before the repeal, the internet was regulated as a public utility under the Title II provision, meaning that Internet Service Providers (ISPs) were legally bound to keep the internet open and give all internet traffic equal priority.
