The Internet was developed as a network between
government research laboratories and participating departments of universities.
By the late 1980s, a process was set in place towards public, commercial use of
the Internet. The remaining restrictions were removed by 1995, 4 years after
the introduction of the World Wide Web.[1]
In 1989, the first ISPs were established in
Australia[2] and the United States. In Brookline, Massachusetts, The World
became the first commercial ISP in the US. Its first customer was served in
November 1989.[3]
On 23 April 2014, the U.S. Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) was reported to be considering a new rule that will permit
ISPs to offer content providers a faster track to send content, thus reversing
their earlier net neutrality position.[4][5][6] A possible solution to net
neutrality concerns may be municipal broadband, according to Professor Susan
Crawford, a legal and technology expert at Harvard Law School.[7] On 15 May
2014, the FCC decided to consider two options regarding Internet services:
first, permit fast and slow broadband lanes, thereby compromising net
neutrality; and second, reclassify broadband as a telecommunication service,
thereby preserving net neutrality.[8][9] On 10 November 2014, President Barack
Obama recommended that the FCC reclassify broadband Internet service as a
telecommunications service in order to preserve net neutrality.[10][11][12] On
16 January 2015, Republicans presented legislation, in the form of a U.S.
Congress H.R. discussion draft bill, that makes concessions to net neutrality
but prohibits the FCC from accomplishing the goal or enacting any further
regulation affecting Internet service providers.[13][14] On 31 January 2015, AP
News reported that the FCC will present the notion of applying ("with some
caveats") Title II (common carrier) of the Communications Act of 1934 to
the internet in a vote expected on 26 February 2015.[15][16][17][18][19]
Adoption of this notion would reclassify internet service from one of information
to one of the telecommunications[20] and, according to Tom Wheeler, chairman of
the FCC, ensure net neutrality.
