    At least one Republican FCC commissioner voiced dissent. "I am deeply concerned by the announcement that the FCC will begin considering new ways to regulate the Internet," FCC Commissioner Michael O'Rielly, a Republican, said. "Instead of fostering investment and innovation through deregulation, the FCC will be devoting its resources to adopting new rules without any evidence that consumers are unable to access the content of their choice."

This is called 'not paying attention', and when you're a professional politician whose decisions matter it should be illegal.

I can't tell if it's willful ignorance or total corruption.
