Could Mean New 'Harmonized' Approach to Telcos, ISPs
The Federal Communications Commission said Monday (March 30) it will huddle with broadband stakeholders next month to try to figure out the best way to protect broadband Internet service provider customers' online privacy now that the agency is applying Title II-based Sec. 222 consumer protections to broadband service.
The FCC's Wireline Competition and Consumer & Governmental Affairs Bureau has scheduled an April 28 workshop to help determine the Sec. 222 duty on telecommunications carriers, which ISPs are now considered per the Feb. 26 title II order, to impose "on every telecommunications carrier to protect the confidentiality of its customers’ information and imposes restrictions on carriers’ ability to use, disclose, or permit access to customers’ individually identifiable customer proprietary network information (CPNI)."
The FCC decided not to apply the same rules it applied to phone company CPNI, saying that may not be the best fit, so now it needs to figure out what is the best fit, including perhaps coming up with new rules that apply to telcos and ISPS.
"The staff-led workshop will provide an opportunity for diverse stakeholders to explore a range of matters associated with the application of statutory privacy protections to broadband Internet access service," the FCC said. "Participants will also have the opportunity to address whether and to what extent the Commission can apply a harmonized privacy framework across various services within the Commission’s jurisdiction." - See more at: http://www.multichannel.com/news/technology/fcc-ponders-protecting-cpni-isp-telecom-world/389289#sthash.HtBgNqNI.dpuf
You DO NOT have to spell in front of me!
Another day, another federal Frankenstein’s monster terrorizes the village.

My own opinion?
For a long time I have thought that message boards and forums should require an ID, a real one.
But visits to web sites should not.
One should be free to read whatever they desire, just as when one goes to the library.
Trust me we when the government says they’re protecting your privacy what they mean is they’re taking the reins to do it for you. Now to see what
“Title II-based Sec. 222 consumer protections to broadband service” Means rxactly...

Full speed ahead! Remember, whatever the title of a bill is, or whatever they say is their intent, they always mean to achieve the opposite.
CPNI was serious business when I was with a cable ISP. We were tested on it yearly.
Soros is behind this net neutrality tyranny the FCC is imposing on the Internet.
The following article has proof that Soros is behind these 400 pages of laws Obama’s FCC unconstitutionally passed:

I'm sure no one here believes the lies that the FCC is out to protect anyone’s “rights” or privacy . no what the FCC (Soros and Obama) are out to do is to ruin the Internet , get government control of the Internet and of us and to advance socialism/communism. sure they lie and say they are for truth, justice,freedom, privacy and any lie that sounds good but that is just lies . what these vermin (the FCC , Obama, Soros, the news media) are about is socialism and government control and all the horror that socialism creates ,including the taking away of all freedom and all privacy
All the amazing innovation that Internet was producing these socialist vermin are going to destroy and with it our freedom rights and privacy
The FCc is acting under the Orders from Obama and Soros
Obama is getting his FCC gestapo to shut down freedom of speech and freedom of information
Proof Soros is behind this “net neutrality” the FCC is imposing
