Thanks, hadn't read the EFF discussion, but I was not aware that content censorship was even at issue in the net neutrality debate.
Given that this is an official statement from a major stakeholder and given the technical/legal/societal implications, I would have hoped for more precise language.
I can still see this sentence being used to justify tying the hands of the FCC when new issues arise due to technological advancements; the whole Comcast judgment brought into question the scope of their regulatory authority & this proposal seems to significantly restrict what could potentially be required to ensure NN. IMO the issue is too important for this type of ambiguity and proposed restrictions on the FCC should be fully aired & vetted.
