The Federal Communications Commission has voted to move forward with a plan to restore Obama-era net neutrality protections. The rules could be re-established as soon as next spring, but the FCC's effort could face legal challenges.

Why does the article have to say "Obama-era"? Net neutrality is just net neutral and we don't need to add extra labels to create a headline. Annoying.
Because we had net neutrality under Obama. And there’s lots of people who don’t know that. I’ve seen numerous posts back on Reddit and recently on lemmy saying corporate dems will never enact NN. When they did, and they are again. I’m glad the article mentions it. Because those history revisionists “both sides” groups are loud and prominent.
I remember it well. We just don't need to add to the already polarized political atmosphere by making it Obama-era thing. I was then and still am a huge proponent of net neutrality.
We do need to add to the polarity. 100%. Dems are not like republicans. And republicans are not like dems. It needs to be pointed out and made clear.
It’s the moderates who said “polarity” was “tearing us apart” during the civil right movement.
