STAMFORD, Conn., Feb. 26, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Charter
Communications, Inc. (NASDAQ:CHTR) today released the following
statement regarding the FCC's adoption of open Internet
rules.
"Charter supports net neutrality because our subscribers expect
nothing less than a free and open Internet. This means that Charter
does not block, slow down or prioritize Internet traffic. However,
the rules adopted today will add fees to customer bills, create
regulatory uncertainty and lead to years of litigation that,
together, will slow the progress and development of faster
broadband for our subscribers. Rather than operate within this
outdated and overly broad regulatory regime, Charter looks forward
to working with Congress to pass a new open Internet law that
protects consumers, provides certainty for investors and freedom
for innovators."
