[quote] Because the FCC "has failed to tie its assertion" of regulatory authority to any actual law enacted by Congress, the agency does not have the authority to regulate an Internet provider's network management practices, wrote Judge [URL="http://www.cadc.uscourts.gov/internet/home.nsf/content/VL+-+Judges+-+DST"]David Tatel[/URL] of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit. [/quote]
