This article further discusses FCC's vote to repeal net neutrality, how the absence of net neutrality poses a threat to cybersecurity, skepticism surrounding promises made by the commission in regards to transparency and government oversight, along with other expected ramifications posed by the repeal and actions that will be taken to challenge this decision.
