This article from Wired Magazine (3/1/2017) and does an excellent job of summarizing the high points of recent changes in FCC rules (recall that we covered net neutrality in chapter 4) regarding many facets of data collection (about your web surfing habits) and the sale of that data. This discussion requires only one post, but in two parts.

Part 1: Summarize the article in your own words in at least 500 words. Make sure to touch on each of the following (10-points):

1. Which agency regulates your ISP (e.g. Midco, Charter, Cox Cable, Verizon Wireless, etc...)

2. Which agency regulates Google, Facebook, etc.?

3. How have the regulations changed most recently?

4. What technology means and tools do you have at your disposal to protect yourself?

5. What is your opinion about resale of your web browsing history to 3rd parties without your consent?

Part 2: 6. What has happened with regard to net neutrality subsequent to this article of 3/1/2017? For Example: FCC Plan to Kill Net Neutrality Rules Could Hurt Students

(Alt PDF: FCC Plan to Kill Net Neutrality Rules Could Hurt Students)

or even more recently: https://docs.fcc.gov/public/attachments/DOC-355824A1.pdf
