President Barack Obama is “pleased to see” that the FCC is “keeping all options on the table” in its plan to craft new net neutrality rules, Press Secretary Jay Carney told reporters Friday at a news briefing. Obama is hopeful the NPRM “results in a final rule that stays true to the spirit of net neutrality, which he supports.” The White House will “carefully review” the FCC’s proposal, Carney added, stressing that the agency is independent and suffered a real setback when a January U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit ruling vacated the agency’s 2010 rules.
