Verizon Steps to the Plate, Challenges Net Neutrality October 3rd, 2011 by Rob Powell

In this fall's least surprising lawsuit, Verizon on Friday fired off its best shot at the US Court of Appeals. They contend that the FCC overstepped its authority in setting up such rules, and basically suggest that the FCC should just butt out of everything related to the internet. You can't blame them for taking a big swing though, otherwise this one would be too easy to justify the cost of the legal team they've put together. And this is Verizon's responsibility right now, as its fellow telecom titan AT&T is too busy arguing over the T-Mobile deal to go toe to toe with Genachowski on another front.
