New internet regulations finally released by the Federal Communications Commission make 46 references to a group funded by billionaire George Soros and co-founded by a neo-Marxist.
The FCC released the 400-page document on Thursday, two weeks after it passed new regulations, which many fear will turn the internet into a public commodity and thereby stifle innovation.
“Leveling the playing field” in that way has been a clear goal of Free Press, a group dedicated to net neutrality which was founded in 2003.
As Phil Kerpen, president of the free-market group American Commitment, first noted, Free Press is mentioned repeatedly in the FCC document. Most of the references are found in footnotes which cite comments by Free Press activists supporting more internet regulation.
One argument made against the FCC’s regulatory push is that the general public is largely happy with its internet service. Support for net neutrality was seen as the domain of special interest groups like Free Press.
The activist group has big money behinds its effort. It has received $2.2 million in donations from progressive billionaire George Soros’ Open Society Foundations and $3.9 million from the Ford Foundation.

is anybody else sick of being enslaved by George Soros?
A lot of people are for net neutrality but when we actually find out the full consequences we will be sorry.
Obama will pardon him. They will filter the money through the Communist party which they both belong to.
I keep saying this IDIOT is running the US by using Obama as his puppet. The same way our ex-County Executive was being used as a figure head but nobody listens.
Soros is stopping the pipeline since his companies is the major transporter of the petroleum products in the US.
