USTelecom Seeks To Defend FCC Against FSN Net Neutrality Challenge

USTelecom asked the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit to intervene in defense of the FCC against Full Service Network's petition for review challenging the agency's net neutrality order. "Unlike all of the other petitioners that have filed petitions to date, these Petitioners intend to argue that the FCC should have imposed even more regulation on providers of broadband Internet access service, including USTelecom’s member companies," USTelecom said in its motion Tuesday. USTelecom has filed a petition for review (and sought a stay) of the FCC order on the grounds that the commission allegedly overstepped its authority in seeking too much regulatory oversight, among other things.
