At the Federal Communications Commission’s November 2023 meeting, the agency approved rules aimed at preventing and eliminating digital discrimination. These rules are a culmination of a controversial multiyear proceeding, kicked off by Section 60506 of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act of 2021.

In this webinar, a panel of experts discussed policies and issues underlying the FCC’s rules, challenges that companies may face in compliance with the rules, as well as the issues before the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals, where the FCC’s digital discrimination order is being challenged. Panelists also discussed some of the potential future obligations that remain open in the FCC’s proceeding.
