Throttled Traffic and Fast Lanes at FCC Building in DC

Maybe he just wanted to get fast high-speed Internet service at home.

Innovative net neutrality protester and video producer Rob Bliss used his bicycle and some traffic cones to stage a protest on the street outside the Federal Communications Commission building in Washington DC. Not sure if Ajit Pai was there or not.

Internet Service Providers have long opposed net neutrality so last year FCC Chairman Ajit Pai passed his "Restoring Internet Freedom" order. It probably has nothing to do with his former employer being Verizon. He is probably not planning to go back to work there after his time with the FCC. The Restoring Internet Freedom order was basically just a repeal of net neutrality rules passed in 2015.

Bliss video taped as he rode his bicycle slowly around the building to "throttle" traffic. Drivers who wanted to, could gain access to the fast lane around the building for a monthly $5 fee. Kind of what Internet service providers might do as a result of the Restoring Internet Freedom order. Bliss had to abandon his new endeavor after the Department of Homeland Security and the DC police showed up and told him to stop.
