Source? Didn't see anything in the article about it, and I did a quick search and couldn't find anything that says they would be allowed to impose data caps given the verbiage in the rules
My source is the document the FCC presented as their new net neutrality rules, which can be found here:
https://docs.fcc.gov/public/attachments/DOC-401676A1.pdf
Page 317-318, Section 534-535 "Application to Data Caps"
Section 534 discusses the professor who suggests data caps should be banned, and section 535 discusses how the commission disagrees and how data caps will remain.
Also, you get an upvote for asking for a source. Cheers.
Thank you! Crazy no news article caught this. Appreciate you taking the time to read the first party document
