the fcc began its latest rulemaking process only a month ago, and so we must give time to allow this process to proceed. to the extent that we do look to antitrust law as a way of ensuring net neutrality enforcement of existing antitrust law would be insufficient. under current antitrust law there is relatively little that antitrust enforcers can do outside the merger review context to address the conduct of a regulated industry like broadband internet service, with respect to enforcing net neutrality principles. through a series of decisions, the supreme court has limited the potential to successfully pursue claims under the sherman antitrust act arising in net neutrality context. moreover, exclusive reliance on antitrust enforcement while having the benefit of a more nuanced and fact specific approach to the problem would also be a cumbersome, more limited, more resource intensive, and after the fact way to develop a regulatory regime for net neutrality. another potential approach would be for the federal trade commission to use its authority under section five of the federal trade
