"headTitle": "The California Report | KQED News",
"content": "\u003cp>Benicia has to do a better job of telling its residents about major emergencies, the city's mayor said Monday, after a series of communication problems surfaced in connection with a power outage at the Valero refinery that has caused intermittent flaring since Friday morning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The city's \u003ca href=\"http://www.ci.benicia.ca.us/btv\" target=\"_blank\">government access television station \u003c/a>broadcast inaccurate and inadequate information in the hours after the outage and not enough residents could hear the city's emergency sirens, said Mayor Elizabeth Patterson in an interview.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's really troubling that we don't have these things in place,\" Patterson said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Monday air regulators announced that \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/05/05/benicia-refinery-power-outage-triggers-evacuations/\" target=\"_blank\">Valero is being penalized\u003c/a> for the incident.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Bay Area Air Quality Management District, which is investigating the flaring, issued four notices of violation to the energy company on Friday, three for excessive smoke and one for causing a public nuisance, according to agency spokeswoman Kristine Roselius.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Monday afternoon the district issued a fifth notice of violation for excessive visible emissions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Valero was preparing for start-up when smoke started coming out of one of the stacks,\" Roselius said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A Valero spokeswoman has not returned a request for comment on the district's penalty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The refinery's first full power loss in 30 years started around 6:30 a.m. Friday. The outage began shortly after crews took one of two transmission lines offline to complete upgrades, said Matt Nauman, a Pacific Gas and Electric spokesman.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Circuit breakers opened after a component of a \"protective relay system failed,\" according to Nauman.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the San Francisco-based energy company did not directly contact Benicia officials quickly enough about the outage, Mayor Patterson said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Why didn't PG&E call the city of Benicia so that we could begin to think about the consequences of power loss to the refinery 15 minutes earlier than we were alerted by Valero?\" Patterson asked.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>PG&E says it did tell the city, just not as fast as the mayor would have liked.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A company representative contacted the Benicia fire chief and the Solano County of Emergency Services at 8 a.m., according to PG&E spokeswoman Deanna Contreras, adding that utility crews worked quickly and safely to restore power in 18 minutes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The outage caused gases used in the refining process to build up inside the refinery. To relieve pressure, Valero sent toxic gas to its flares.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Valero, like other refining companies, emphasizes that the flaring process is a safety device.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At first that process sent flames and a huge plume of smoke into the sky, which resulted in the evacuation of an industrial area near Valero and a shelter-in-place order for two elementary schools.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even that order wasn't clear. Initially, some authorities called for the rest of the city, except for the adjacent industrial area, to stay indoors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"All other areas of town shelter in place. Keep doors and windows closed.

The outage began shortly after crews took one of two transmission lines offline to complete upgrades, said Matt Nauman, a Pacific Gas and Electric spokesman.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Circuit breakers opened after a component of a \"protective relay system failed,\" according to Nauman.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the San Francisco-based energy company did not directly contact Benicia officials quickly enough about the outage, Mayor Patterson said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Why didn't PG&E call the city of Benicia so that we could begin to think about the consequences of power loss to the refinery 15 minutes earlier than we were alerted by Valero?\" Patterson asked.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>PG&E says it did tell the city, just not as fast as the mayor would have liked.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A company representative contacted the Benicia fire chief and the Solano County of Emergency Services at 8 a.m., according to PG&E spokeswoman Deanna Contreras, adding that utility crews worked quickly and safely to restore power in 18 minutes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The outage caused gases used in the refining process to build up inside the refinery. To relieve pressure, Valero sent toxic gas to its flares.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Valero, like other refining companies, emphasizes that the flaring process is a safety device.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At first that process sent flames and a huge plume of smoke into the sky, which resulted in the evacuation of an industrial area near Valero and a shelter-in-place order for two elementary schools.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even that order wasn't clear. Initially, some authorities called for the rest of the city, except for the adjacent industrial area, to stay indoors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"All other areas of town shelter in place.

Building on work already being done at NIH, the initiative expanded to include universities across the country: Duke, Columbia and Stanford are among the other sites. The goals are to provide answers for patients with mysterious diseases and to learn more about the disorders.\u003cbr>\nA proposal last month by President Donald Trump to cut the NIH budget by $5.8 billion could put the program in jeopardy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even with the best technology and the finest brains at work, progress is slow. Since its launch, the network has received nearly 1,400 applications on behalf of patients. It has accepted 545 for review so far. Just 74 of the cases have been diagnosed, including 11 at UCLA. Andrew Whittaker’s case is among many in progress.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s like battling “an unknown enemy,” said Euan Ashley, one of the principal investigators of the network’s Stanford University site. “That is a particular form of torment that other patients don’t have.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A diagnosis can end families’ painful odyssey while helping physicians and scientists better understand rare diseases and human physiology, said Rachel Ramoni, former executive director of the network, which is based at Harvard University. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Researchers throughout the network use advanced medical technology. For example, to study patients’ gene expression and disease progression, they can make models using nearly transparent zebrafish, whose genetic structure is similar to that of humans. And scientists can conduct whole genome sequencing, which allows the medical team to read a patient’s DNA and identify changes that can reveal what may be causing a disease.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have powerful techniques to look at every gene that is being expressed as well as every gene that is inherited,” said Stanley Nelson, one of UCLA’s principal investigators and the lead doctor on Andrew’s case. “This is an example of true precision medicine.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nelson said the network can examine all known genes -- not just the ones believed to have mutations that cause diseases. Doing that can lead to the discovery of new illnesses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Part of what we have to do is keep building that library, that encyclopedia of what gene and what gene mutations cause what symptoms,” Nelson said. “It’s just incomplete at this moment.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Already the work is helping patients and their families come to terms with their illnesses. In one case, at Stanford, a toddler was diagnosed with two rare diseases, including a connective tissue disorder called Marfan Syndrome, after doctors conducted a form of sequencing that looks for changes in coded genetic segments known as exons. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sometimes answers come from something decidedly lower-tech: collaboration among clinicians and researchers who share experiences, data and expertise.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A lot of times your ability to be diagnosed depends on who is in the room,” Ramoni said. “And what we are doing with the network is we are expanding exponentially the number of people in the room.”\u003cbr>\nDoctors at one institution might think their patient is a unique case, only to learn that colleagues elsewhere have a patient with a similar illness. But even when diseases are diagnosed or gene mutations are discovered, treatments may still not be available. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>A Life-Changing Mystery\u003cbr>\n\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Andrew Whittaker’s odyssey began one afternoon at age 19, when he started trembling and couldn’t speak. Doctors suspected he was suffering from anxiety and prescribed medication to control it. But Andrew said he continued to have “episodes,” during which everything just went blank.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s like there’s not enough blood going to your brain,” he said. “You can’t think.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Andrew also started losing his balance and falling off his bicycle. The family visited several hospitals. Doctors discovered that the receptors in his brain were malfunctioning and that he lacked sufficient dopamine, a chemical compound in the body responsible for transmitting signals between nerve cells. As a result, Andrew has some symptoms similar to those of Parkinson’s disease. Doctors also confirmed he was having seizures. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, Andrew’s symptoms didn’t add up to any known disease.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One afternoon last fall at precisely noon, as Andrew sat propped up on the living room couch, Lynn’s phone alarm sounded, signaling it was time for his medication. Lynn pried open Andrew’s hand, which was clenched into a fist, and dropped in the pills. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To keep Andrew from falling, the family has lowered his bed and removed carpet from the house. They also bought him a wheelchair. Their precautions don’t always work. One morning, Lynn was in the kitchen when she heard a crash. “I ran in there and he’s laid flat on his back,” she said. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Andrew is close to his mom. But he also gets frustrated. He can’t shower or dress without her help. He’s had to give up the things he loved to do: printing T-shirts. Skateboarding. Shooting short films. He’s lost friends and can’t imagine dating anymore.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Girlfriends? Forget about it,” he said, his face twitching as he talks. “They want a guy who can do stuff for them, not the other way around.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Running The Medical Gauntlet\u003cbr>\n\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On a Monday morning in late January, Andrew and his parents were in an exam room at UCLA. Lynn teased her son, saying she was going to put him in a freezer until doctors figured out what was wrong.\u003cbr>\n“Then we’ll pull you back out again,” she said, smiling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’ll never get pulled out,” Andrew responded. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Yes, you will,” she said. “You will.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nelson, Andrew’s main doctor, walked into the room. He told Andrew he’d read through the medical records. “We’re going to try to figure you out.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The work Nelson does is personal. His teenage son, Dylan, has Duchenne muscular dystrophy, a genetic disorder that causes muscle degeneration and weakness. Nelson knows his son’s disease will eventually take his life, but he said having a diagnosis makes all the difference. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“My heart very much goes out to the families that don’t even get an adequate diagnosis,” he said.\u003cbr>\nNelson suspects that Andrew’s disease is genetic as well. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He asked the Whittakers to describe their son’s journey and he conducted a short physical exam, asking Andrew to push against his hand and touch his own nose. Andrew trembled and his shoulders tensed, but he did it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The rest of the week, Andrew underwent several other diagnostic tests, including a muscle biopsy, an EEG, MRI and a lumbar puncture. He remained upbeat, though running the medical gauntlet clearly wore him out. He also met with UCLA specialists in brain degeneration and muscle and nerve disorders. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At week’s end, Nelson sat down with the family to explain what he’d found. He had reviewed Andrew’s genome and compared it with that of both parents. Andrew had one copy of a defective gene that leads to Parkinson’s but the genome sequencing didn’t show a second copy, without which it could not be Parkinson’s.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He also explained that Andrew’s illness was clearly progressive and that his brain was shrinking, making it harder for him to process language and information. Nelson said he still didn’t have a diagnosis -- he believed it was a brand-new disease. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nelson planned to continue poring over the test results, conducting additional exams and communicating with others in the network. He also is analyzing Andrew’s muscle, skin and blood to see whether any mutated gene is expressed abnormally. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even in the absence of a clear diagnosis, Nelson said, rare diseases like Andrew’s help educate scientists and may help other patients. “These are the people we as a society will owe a great debt of gratitude,” he said. “They are effectively donating their lives to this process.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lynn Whittaker was disappointed. “We are still left with just hope that they will come up with something,” she lamented. “What else do we have?” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Andrew said his relatives have asked if he’s scared the doctors will find something. “I’m more scared if they don’t,” he replied.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Building on work already being done at NIH, the initiative expanded to include universities across the country: Duke, Columbia and Stanford are among the other sites. The goals are to provide answers for patients with mysterious diseases and to learn more about the disorders.\u003cbr>\nA proposal last month by President Donald Trump to cut the NIH budget by $5.8 billion could put the program in jeopardy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even with the best technology and the finest brains at work, progress is slow. Since its launch, the network has received nearly 1,400 applications on behalf of patients. It has accepted 545 for review so far. Just 74 of the cases have been diagnosed, including 11 at UCLA. Andrew Whittaker’s case is among many in progress.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s like battling “an unknown enemy,” said Euan Ashley, one of the principal investigators of the network’s Stanford University site. “That is a particular form of torment that other patients don’t have.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A diagnosis can end families’ painful odyssey while helping physicians and scientists better understand rare diseases and human physiology, said Rachel Ramoni, former executive director of the network, which is based at Harvard University. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Researchers throughout the network use advanced medical technology. For example, to study patients’ gene expression and disease progression, they can make models using nearly transparent zebrafish, whose genetic structure is similar to that of humans. And scientists can conduct whole genome sequencing, which allows the medical team to read a patient’s DNA and identify changes that can reveal what may be causing a disease.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have powerful techniques to look at every gene that is being expressed as well as every gene that is inherited,” said Stanley Nelson, one of UCLA’s principal investigators and the lead doctor on Andrew’s case. “This is an example of true precision medicine.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nelson said the network can examine all known genes -- not just the ones believed to have mutations that cause diseases. Doing that can lead to the discovery of new illnesses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Part of what we have to do is keep building that library, that encyclopedia of what gene and what gene mutations cause what symptoms,” Nelson said. “It’s just incomplete at this moment.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Already the work is helping patients and their families come to terms with their illnesses. In one case, at Stanford, a toddler was diagnosed with two rare diseases, including a connective tissue disorder called Marfan Syndrome, after doctors conducted a form of sequencing that looks for changes in coded genetic segments known as exons. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sometimes answers come from something decidedly lower-tech: collaboration among clinicians and researchers who share experiences, data and expertise.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A lot of times your ability to be diagnosed depends on who is in the room,” Ramoni said. “And what we are doing with the network is we are expanding exponentially the number of people in the room.”\u003cbr>\nDoctors at one institution might think their patient is a unique case, only to learn that colleagues elsewhere have a patient with a similar illness. But even when diseases are diagnosed or gene mutations are discovered, treatments may still not be available. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>A Life-Changing Mystery\u003cbr>\n\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Andrew Whittaker’s odyssey began one afternoon at age 19, when he started trembling and couldn’t speak. Doctors suspected he was suffering from anxiety and prescribed medication to control it. But Andrew said he continued to have “episodes,” during which everything just went blank.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s like there’s not enough blood going to your brain,” he said. “You can’t think.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Andrew also started losing his balance and falling off his bicycle. The family visited several hospitals. Doctors discovered that the receptors in his brain were malfunctioning and that he lacked sufficient dopamine, a chemical compound in the body responsible for transmitting signals between nerve cells. As a result, Andrew has some symptoms similar to those of Parkinson’s disease. Doctors also confirmed he was having seizures. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, Andrew’s symptoms didn’t add up to any known disease.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One afternoon last fall at precisely noon, as Andrew sat propped up on the living room couch, Lynn’s phone alarm sounded, signaling it was time for his medication. Lynn pried open Andrew’s hand, which was clenched into a fist, and dropped in the pills. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To keep Andrew from falling, the family has lowered his bed and removed carpet from the house. They also bought him a wheelchair. Their precautions don’t always work. One morning, Lynn was in the kitchen when she heard a crash. “I ran in there and he’s laid flat on his back,” she said. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Andrew is close to his mom. But he also gets frustrated. He can’t shower or dress without her help. He’s had to give up the things he loved to do: printing T-shirts. Skateboarding. Shooting short films. He’s lost friends and can’t imagine dating anymore.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Girlfriends? Forget about it,” he said, his face twitching as he talks. “They want a guy who can do stuff for them, not the other way around.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Running The Medical Gauntlet\u003cbr>\n\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On a Monday morning in late January, Andrew and his parents were in an exam room at UCLA. Lynn teased her son, saying she was going to put him in a freezer until doctors figured out what was wrong.\u003cbr>\n“Then we’ll pull you back out again,” she said, smiling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’ll never get pulled out,” Andrew responded. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Yes, you will,” she said. “You will.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nelson, Andrew’s main doctor, walked into the room. He told Andrew he’d read through the medical records. “We’re going to try to figure you out.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The work Nelson does is personal. His teenage son, Dylan, has Duchenne muscular dystrophy, a genetic disorder that causes muscle degeneration and weakness. Nelson knows his son’s disease will eventually take his life, but he said having a diagnosis makes all the difference. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“My heart very much goes out to the families that don’t even get an adequate diagnosis,” he said.\u003cbr>\nNelson suspects that Andrew’s disease is genetic as well. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He asked the Whittakers to describe their son’s journey and he conducted a short physical exam, asking Andrew to push against his hand and touch his own nose. Andrew trembled and his shoulders tensed, but he did it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The rest of the week, Andrew underwent several other diagnostic tests, including a muscle biopsy, an EEG, MRI and a lumbar puncture. He remained upbeat, though running the medical gauntlet clearly wore him out. He also met with UCLA specialists in brain degeneration and muscle and nerve disorders. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At week’s end, Nelson sat down with the family to explain what he’d found. He had reviewed Andrew’s genome and compared it with that of both parents. Andrew had one copy of a defective gene that leads to Parkinson’s but the genome sequencing didn’t show a second copy, without which it could not be Parkinson’s.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He also explained that Andrew’s illness was clearly progressive and that his brain was shrinking, making it harder for him to process language and information. Nelson said he still didn’t have a diagnosis -- he believed it was a brand-new disease. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nelson planned to continue poring over the test results, conducting additional exams and communicating with others in the network. He also is analyzing Andrew’s muscle, skin and blood to see whether any mutated gene is expressed abnormally. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even in the absence of a clear diagnosis, Nelson said, rare diseases like Andrew’s help educate scientists and may help other patients. “These are the people we as a society will owe a great debt of gratitude,” he said. “They are effectively donating their lives to this process.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lynn Whittaker was disappointed. “We are still left with just hope that they will come up with something,” she lamented. “What else do we have?” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"title": "FCC Chief Begins Rollback of Net Neutrality Regulations",
"headTitle": "The California Report | KQED News",
"content": "\u003cp>Net neutrality regulations are getting yet another remake.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new head of the Federal Communications Commission on Wednesday launched his long-expected campaign to undo the regulations adopted in 2015 under former President Barack Obama. Specifically, FCC Chairman Ajit Pai wants to loosen the legal structure that placed internet service providers under the strictest-ever oversight of the agency, in favor of a \"light-touch regulator framework.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Going forward, we cannot stick with regulations from the Great Depression that were meant to micromanage Ma Bell,\" Pai said in a speech at the Newseum in Washington, D.C. \"Nothing about the internet was broken in 2015.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pai's plan so far lacks many specifics, but it marks the start of what's expected to be a new months-long debate. The FCC is expected to vote to formally begin the repeal process on May 18. After that, the agency would collect comments from the public and the stakeholders before crafting a detailed approach and scheduling another agency vote to adopt it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All this means the FCC is beginning a new phase of one of its hottest, longest-running debates: How should the government regulate internet service providers to ensure that they don't act as gatekeepers to Americans' equal and fair access to websites and web services?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over time, the FCC established so-called net neutrality principles that state that internet providers shouldn't block or slow down any websites or apps (no blocking or discrimination) and shouldn't charge extra for faster loading (no paid prioritization). As this blogger \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2015/12/04/458444673/5-things-to-know-net-neutrality-is-back-in-court\" target=\"_blank\">once wrote\u003c/a>, the term net neutrality \"was so nerdy that it's been 're-branded' as Open Internet.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the years, the FCC has attempted several legal mechanisms to enforce these net neutrality principles. Three times, the attempts ended up challenged in court. The last attempt — after months of heated public debate — did gain full support from a U.S. appeals court \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/06/14/471286113/u-s-appeals-court-holds-up-net-neutrality-rules-in-full\" target=\"_blank\">in June 2016\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That approach is known as Title II reclassification. Adopted by the majority of Democrats who ran the FCC at the time, the regulations reclassified how the FCC treats internet service providers — both wired and mobile — to put them in a similar bucket to traditional telephone companies, like utilities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This dramatically expanded the FCC's authority over the internet, which was praised by consumer advocacy groups. But cable and telecom companies such as AT&T and Comcast argue that this regulatory regime weighs on the industry, an outdated approach that dampens investment and innovation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The FCC \"decided to put the federal government at the center of the Internet,\" says Pai, who at the time was a dissenting Republican FCC commissioner. He was elevated to chair the agency by President Trump in January. Pai says the net neutrality rulemaking was political and, in fact, has harmed smaller broadband providers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pai's plan broadly is to undo the Title II back to a lighter-regulated Title I classification. (For the wonky: from utility-like \"telecommunications services\" to \"information services.\") AT&T, Comcast and other telecom and cable companies welcomed this effort, while adding that they do support \"a free and open internet\" as well as the fundamental principles of net neutrality.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Internet Association, which represents web companies including Google and Netflix, said it will keep working to defend the existing rules from repeal. The group said they protect \"consumers from ISPs looking to play gatekeeper or prioritize their own content at the expense of competition online.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The previous FCC effort to write net neutrality rules had drawn a record outpouring of more than 4 million public comments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2017 NPR.

Specifically, FCC Chairman Ajit Pai wants to loosen the legal structure that placed internet service providers under the strictest-ever oversight of the agency, in favor of a \"light-touch regulator framework.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Going forward, we cannot stick with regulations from the Great Depression that were meant to micromanage Ma Bell,\" Pai said in a speech at the Newseum in Washington, D.C. \"Nothing about the internet was broken in 2015.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pai's plan so far lacks many specifics, but it marks the start of what's expected to be a new months-long debate. The FCC is expected to vote to formally begin the repeal process on May 18. After that, the agency would collect comments from the public and the stakeholders before crafting a detailed approach and scheduling another agency vote to adopt it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All this means the FCC is beginning a new phase of one of its hottest, longest-running debates: How should the government regulate internet service providers to ensure that they don't act as gatekeepers to Americans' equal and fair access to websites and web services?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over time, the FCC established so-called net neutrality principles that state that internet providers shouldn't block or slow down any websites or apps (no blocking or discrimination) and shouldn't charge extra for faster loading (no paid prioritization). As this blogger \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2015/12/04/458444673/5-things-to-know-net-neutrality-is-back-in-court\" target=\"_blank\">once wrote\u003c/a>, the term net neutrality \"was so nerdy that it's been 're-branded' as Open Internet.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the years, the FCC has attempted several legal mechanisms to enforce these net neutrality principles. Three times, the attempts ended up challenged in court. The last attempt — after months of heated public debate — did gain full support from a U.S. appeals court \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/06/14/471286113/u-s-appeals-court-holds-up-net-neutrality-rules-in-full\" target=\"_blank\">in June 2016\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That approach is known as Title II reclassification. Adopted by the majority of Democrats who ran the FCC at the time, the regulations reclassified how the FCC treats internet service providers — both wired and mobile — to put them in a similar bucket to traditional telephone companies, like utilities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This dramatically expanded the FCC's authority over the internet, which was praised by consumer advocacy groups. But cable and telecom companies such as AT&T and Comcast argue that this regulatory regime weighs on the industry, an outdated approach that dampens investment and innovation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The FCC \"decided to put the federal government at the center of the Internet,\" says Pai, who at the time was a dissenting Republican FCC commissioner. He was elevated to chair the agency by President Trump in January. Pai says the net neutrality rulemaking was political and, in fact, has harmed smaller broadband providers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pai's plan broadly is to undo the Title II back to a lighter-regulated Title I classification. (For the wonky: from utility-like \"telecommunications services\" to \"information services.\") AT&T, Comcast and other telecom and cable companies welcomed this effort, while adding that they do support \"a free and open internet\" as well as the fundamental principles of net neutrality.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Internet Association, which represents web companies including Google and Netflix, said it will keep working to defend the existing rules from repeal. The group said they protect \"consumers from ISPs looking to play gatekeeper or prioritize their own content at the expense of competition online.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The previous FCC effort to write net neutrality rules had drawn a record outpouring of more than 4 million public comments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2017 NPR.

The timing seems right for a reappraisal of our retro-future dreams. The good news is that flying cars are no longer science fiction -- in fact, several designs are already in the air. The bad news is that you won't be flying one anytime soon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>First, the good news. Depending on how you define your terms, flying cars have been around for several years now. Straightforward hybrids like the \u003ca href=\"http://www.terrafugia.com/the-transition/\">Terrafugia Transition\u003c/a> are basically cars with folding wings -- keep 'em folded up when you're driving around; drop 'em down when you hit the runway.

A car trip between San Francisco and San Jose can take up to 2½ hours, depending on traffic, and \"this is like a 15-minute flight,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This is giving you freedom, radically reducing time from point A to point B,\" Holden said.

If nothing else, we'd need a total maintenance revolution.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So is there any hope? Is our cherished 1950s vision of flying cars just an impossible sci-fi dream? Well, Aboulafia doesn't want to be a total bummer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It could be that one day we have this amazing confluence of unlimited and safe battery power, combined with truly autonomous capabilities, where the machine is truly flying itself,\" Aboulafia said. \"All of that may trigger some kind of intra-urban mobility revolution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"But that's many, many decades away -- if ever.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.glenn-mcdonald.com/\">Glenn McDonald\u003c/a> \u003cem>is a freelance writer, editor and game designer based in Chapel Hill, N.C.

A few came true, like \u003ca href=\"https://www.ald.softbankrobotics.com/en/cool-robots/pepper\">robot companions\u003c/a>. Most didn't, like \u003ca href=\"http://signsfromthenearfuture.tumblr.com/image/157825581640\">lunar shuttles\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But one concept in particular has endured without quite being realized -- the flying car. Check those special \"future\" editions of \u003ca href=\"http://www.popularmechanics.com/flight/g462/future-that-never-was-next-gen-tech-concepts/\">old magazines\u003c/a> and you'll find plenty of stalwart citizens commuting to work in hovering sedans, with tail fins.

The timing seems right for a reappraisal of our retro-future dreams. The good news is that flying cars are no longer science fiction -- in fact, several designs are already in the air. The bad news is that you won't be flying one anytime soon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>First, the good news. Depending on how you define your terms, flying cars have been around for several years now. Straightforward hybrids like the \u003ca href=\"http://www.terrafugia.com/the-transition/\">Terrafugia Transition\u003c/a> are basically cars with folding wings -- keep 'em folded up when you're driving around; drop 'em down when you hit the runway.

In fact, almost all of the recent flying car proposals are banking on batteries, with the exception of those \u003ca href=\"http://www.aerovelo.com/atlas-helicopter\">pedal-powered contraptions\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a recent issue of Airbus' \u003ca href=\"http://www.airbusgroup.com/int/en/news-media/corporate-magazine/Forum-88/My-Kind-Of-Flyover.html\">corporate magazine\u003c/a>, CEO Tom Enders said he fully expects to have a sky full of flying coaches and cabs over major cities: \"In a not-too-distant future, we'll use our smartphones to book a fully automated flying taxi that will land outside our front door -- without any pilot.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>A Different Point of View\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>It all seems very exciting and imminent, but obviously some enormous obstacles remain -- true autonomous vehicle technology and air traffic control, to name two. Adding millions of flying cars and taxis to the existing airspace would require a colossal reboot of air traffic control systems, most likely managed by some kind of future artificial intelligence. The more you think it through, the more daunting it all becomes. If you'd rather keep the 1950s dream alive in your mind, stop reading now.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Aviation consultant \u003ca href=\"http://www.richardaboulafia.com/\">Richard Aboulafia\u003c/a> is squarely among the skeptics. As a veteran industry analyst, Aboulafia makes his living assessing nuts-and-bolt realities, not concept drawings. When it comes to hybrid vehicles that can drive on roads and fly in the air, there's a core design dilemma, he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11426670\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11426670\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/04/airbus-flying-car-d781b22144f8ac071029ba51fadefe48e3980d91-800x600.jpg\" alt=\"Airbus is one of more than a dozen companies actively developing flying cars.\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/04/airbus-flying-car-d781b22144f8ac071029ba51fadefe48e3980d91-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/04/airbus-flying-car-d781b22144f8ac071029ba51fadefe48e3980d91-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/04/airbus-flying-car-d781b22144f8ac071029ba51fadefe48e3980d91-240x180.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/04/airbus-flying-car-d781b22144f8ac071029ba51fadefe48e3980d91-375x281.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/04/airbus-flying-car-d781b22144f8ac071029ba51fadefe48e3980d91-520x390.jpg 520w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/04/airbus-flying-car-d781b22144f8ac071029ba51fadefe48e3980d91.jpg 915w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Airbus is one of more than a dozen companies actively developing flying cars. \u003ccite>(Airbus)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\"You know, I'd like to have a good product that combines shampoo and conditioner in one bottle, but you can't do it,\" he says. \"And it's the same here with flying cars -- you have a perfectly inadequate plane crossed with a perfectly inadequate car. You've got two very different animals here.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As for those fleets of ski taxis and autonomous flying vehicles being proposed by Uber, Airbus and others, Aboulafia sees another mountain of practical problems: \"More issues than I can count, really.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Aboulafia says the first thing that jumped out at him in Uber's Elevate \u003ca href=\"http://www.uber.com/elevate/whitepaper/\">white paper\u003c/a> is an old industry dilemma: Electric vehicles have a fundamental battery problem.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The biggest issue with the Elevate manifesto is that it assumes the existence of a truly amazing battery with a phenomenal energy density,\" he says. \"We've been striving for this for the last century.

With flying cars, after all, we're adding an entire extra dimension to problems we have yet to solve in 2-D.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"When we have a safe self-driving car, we'll be part of the way there,\" Aboulafia says. \"But we'll need some dramatic improvements in sense-and-avoid technology, to be able to track everything in all directions.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then there are the maintenance issues. \"Aircraft have a lot of moving parts, you know,\" Aboulafia says. \"And aircraft maintenance is a lot more expensive than car maintenance -- ask any pilot. If nothing else, we'd need a total maintenance revolution.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So is there any hope? Is our cherished 1950s vision of flying cars just an impossible sci-fi dream? Well, Aboulafia doesn't want to be a total bummer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It could be that one day we have this amazing confluence of unlimited and safe battery power, combined with truly autonomous capabilities, where the machine is truly flying itself,\" Aboulafia said. \"All of that may trigger some kind of intra-urban mobility revolution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"But that's many, many decades away -- if ever.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The company wants to respond to keep users happy. \"They want to take things like this down, and they're working really hard to have a good way to do [contextly_sidebar id=\"sJNF7YT3e1qn28khWQFLU1BNpJRdSgPw\"]that,\" she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Keller thinks part of Facebook's dilemma is that society isn't sure yet whether the company should be like the phone company, which isn't responsible for what people say, or if it should be like a traditional broadcaster, subject to strict regulations on what can be put on air.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"And I think Facebook isn't really exactly like either of those two things,\" says Keller, \"and that makes it hard as a society to figure out what it is we do want them to do.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nearly 2 billion people use Facebook each month, and millions of them are uploading videos every day. Facebook also pays media outlets, including NPR, to upload videos. That volume of content makes Facebook's job a lot harder.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The company has three ways of monitoring content: There are the users — like the ones who flagged the murder videos from Cleveland. Facebook also has human editors who evaluate flagged content. And, there's artificial intelligence, which can monitor enormous amounts of content.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But, even AI has its limits, says Nick Feamster, a professor of computer science at Princeton University. Take that iconic naked girl photo from Vietnam, he says. \"Can we detect a nude image? That's something that an algorithm is pretty good at,\" he says. \"Does the algorithm know context and history? That's a much more difficult problem.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Feamster says it's not a problem that's likely to be solved anytime soon. However, he says AI might be able to detect signs of a troublesome account. It's sort of like the way a bank assesses credit ratings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Over time you might learn a so-called prior probability that suggests that maybe this user is more likely to be bad or more likely to be posting inappropriate or unwanted content,\" Feamster says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So, Facebook would keep a closer eye on that account.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Between artificial intelligence and more human monitoring, it might be possible to stop the posting of criminal videos and hate speech.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Stanford's Keller wonders if that's really what we want.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Do we want one of our key platforms for communication with each other to have built-in surveillance and monitoring for illegal activity and somebody deciding when what we said is inappropriate and cutting it off?\" she asks. \"That's kind of a dystopian policy direction as far as I'm concerned.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Keller is willing to make a prediction — very soon someone else will upload another video that forces the country to be asking these same questions again.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2017 NPR.

That volume of content makes Facebook's job a lot harder.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The company has three ways of monitoring content: There are the users — like the ones who flagged the murder videos from Cleveland. Facebook also has human editors who evaluate flagged content. And, there's artificial intelligence, which can monitor enormous amounts of content.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But, even AI has its limits, says Nick Feamster, a professor of computer science at Princeton University. Take that iconic naked girl photo from Vietnam, he says. \"Can we detect a nude image? That's something that an algorithm is pretty good at,\" he says. \"Does the algorithm know context and history? That's a much more difficult problem.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Feamster says it's not a problem that's likely to be solved anytime soon. However, he says AI might be able to detect signs of a troublesome account. It's sort of like the way a bank assesses credit ratings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Over time you might learn a so-called prior probability that suggests that maybe this user is more likely to be bad or more likely to be posting inappropriate or unwanted content,\" Feamster says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So, Facebook would keep a closer eye on that account.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Between artificial intelligence and more human monitoring, it might be possible to stop the posting of criminal videos and hate speech.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Stanford's Keller wonders if that's really what we want.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Do we want one of our key platforms for communication with each other to have built-in surveillance and monitoring for illegal activity and somebody deciding when what we said is inappropriate and cutting it off?\" she asks. \"That's kind of a dystopian policy direction as far as I'm concerned.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Keller is willing to make a prediction — very soon someone else will upload another video that forces the country to be asking these same questions again.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2017 NPR.
