Reason.tv The FCC has just taken initial steps to regulate the Internet service providers the same way it regulates telephone companies. Although Chairman Julius Genachowski has said he would use any regulatory powers with a “light touch,” having the FCC control any aspect of the Internet is a really bad idea for at least three reasons.
