On November 15 with very little fanfare and minimal public knowledge, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) voted to seize control of the internet in the name of promoting "equity."

The FCC voted in favor of a new set of rules called the "Preventing Digital Discrimination Order" that recommends for legal implementation a slew of new browsing restrictions that will forever change the way people interact with the online world.
