By an 11-11 tie, a GOP-dominated committee failed in June to approve rules requiring that all Internet traffic be treated the same no matter what its "source" or "destination" might be. A similar measure also failed in the House of Representatives.

2. Looking good

A lot of info in that article. Everything I understood looked good to me.

It looks like the only thing Republicans want is anti-privacy regulation, while letting big business dominate. What a sick vision of the future.

3. This is actually a very big thing

what the GOP wanted would either raise prices or take access away from many.
