Professor Christopher Jon Sprigman Amicus Brief on Net Neutrality

“When the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) voted to repeal net neutrality rules in December 2017, it was the latest but hardly the last move in a hotly contested battle over regulating Internet service providers (ISPs). Professor Christopher Jon Sprigman wrote an amicus brief aimed at overturning the net neutrality repeal on behalf of members of Congress. Sen. Ed Markey (D-Mass.), Rep. Anna Eshoo (D-Ca.), and 103 of their Congressional colleagues filed the brief on August 28, 2018. An intellectual property expert who focuses broadly on how rules shape creativity and innovation, Sprigman answered some questions—and offered some of his own views—on the topic.”
