Re: Former FCC Chairman: Comcast Action Legality “Murky”

I agree wholeheartedly with what Cord has written about the need to maintain the rule of law and cub the FCC's propensity to expand its regulatory reach beyond its statutory boundaries. I have written about this and other issues in my recent piece, "The Law is Whatever the Nobles Do: Undue Process at the FCC." Although I wrote the piece prior to release of the Comcast P2P Order, having now reviewed the Order, I stand by my analysis. There are myriad legal and procedural problems with the FCC's action, and they will likely doom its chances on appeal.
