During this segment, comedian John Oliver discusses the threat to net neutrality. Under the previous administration of President Barack Obama, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) was considering two options for net neutrality in early 2014, which Oliver covered in a previous segment entitled "Net Neutrality". The FCC proposed permitting fast and slow broadband lanes, which would compromise net neutrality, but was also considering reclassifying broadband as a telecommunication service, which would preserve net neutrality. After a surge of comments supporting net neutrality that were inspired by Oliver's episode, the FCC voted to reclassify broadband as a utility in 2015.
