Cable advises FCC on shaping net neutrality's return. Net neutrality's anti-throttling rules should include exceptions for ""reasonable network management" and data caps and zero rating should remain options, cable groups told the FCC.

America is preparing for the return of something unexpected from the annals of history. We're talking, of course, about the comeback of net neutrality. Next month, Obama-era regulations will enter into force and bring major changes to the regulatory landscape.
