Wireless Group Sides With FCC in Net Neutrality Suit

CTIA-the Wireless Association, a trade group that represents wireless carriers, filed a motion in federal court on Wednesday to defend the Federal Communications Commission in a lawsuit over net neutrality regulations.

"As the leading trade association for the wireless communications industry, CTIA also has a significant interest in defending the FCC's decision not to impose additional regulatory burdens on mobile broadband providers," CTIA said in its filing. "CTIA's interests (as well as those of its members) would be directly affected by a decision of this Court to stay, modify, affirm, or set aside the Order."

Verizon has sued the FCC over the rules, arguing that the agency does not have the authority to regulate the Internet. At least four other groups have also challenged the rules, but from the other side of the argument. They say the FCC's rules are too weak and arbitrarily exclude wireless networks from many of the regulations.
