ACA's Gessner: FCC ISP Branding an Insult

At the American Cable Association summit in Washington, Bob Gessner told reporters at a press briefing that he was insulted by the way the FCC treated ISPs in its preamble to the Title II vote, basically redefining them from innovators and entrepreneurs to a threatening force that puts profits above the public interest.   He called it a cruel and intentional strategy to portray ISPs as evil. He said he has always wondered about another name for ISPs — broadband Internet access providers (BIAS), suggesting the FCC had a bias against ISPs who have been “nothing but innovators.”
