I think that if Obama can enforce some sort of net neutrality, that it can turn out to become his lasting legacy. The internet and its open usage and freedom is only going to become more important. If we can now introduce some sort of legislation that favors the people instead of major conglomerate corporations, it will be beneficial for years to come. In the first part of the article it has quotes from leaders from Verizon, AT&T, and Comcast, and that just made me laugh. Those companies disgust me with their interests. If for a second you can tell me that Comcast is looking out for everyone in the long run, with a straight face, I would laugh at you.
He can't. The President doesn't have the authority to direct the FCC. In the 114th Congress? Seems unlikely.I think that if Obama can enforce some sort of net neutrality

We have to at least try something, Obama doesn't necessarily have to do it anyway. But even promoting net neutrality is a start
