“By all measures, broadband in the U.S. has been thriving under a light-touch regulatory framework. We’re pleased that the Sixth Circuit has preserved that framework during the appeal process, thus shielding providers and their customers from the many harms that would stem from attempting to comply with the FCC’s ill-fitting and ambiguous common carrier mandates.”
