On August 15, 2014, the Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) extended the deadline for the second round of public comments on its proposed new “net neutrality” rules by three business days to September 15, 2014. The extension comes in response to the overwhelming one million plus comments received by the FCC on the proposed new rules, and mirrors a similar three day extension to the initial commentary period in July of 2014. FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler outlined his proposed new net neutrality rules in April of 2014, but met with fierce opposition from critics who argued the rules would let content companies like Netflix pay Internet Service Providers for faster delivery to their customers, thereby slowing speeds for users of other sites. The FCC intends to review all comments and establish new net neutrality rules by the end of 2014.
