Neutralidade da rede nos Estados Unidos. De volta para o quadro-negro
Resumo
Este artigo analiza a sentença da Corte de Apelações do Circuito do Distrito de Columbia (o "Circuito D.C."que anulou parcialmente a Open Internet Order, ditada pela Federal Communication Comission (FCC) dos Estados Unidos no 2010, que estabeleceu normativamente o princípio de neutralidade da rede. Para isso, junto com um breve resumo do tópico, revisa-se os antecedentes judiciais e administrativos que antecederam a sentença relacionados con o princípio de neutralidade. Logo se analizam os argumentos do Circuito D.C. para anular quase totalmente a Open Internet Order, incluindo um breve comentário sobre o voto dissidente. O artigo termina com conclusões relativas à sentença e às decições eventuais que poderia tomar agora a FCC.Palavras-chave:
