The Federal Communications Commission has unanimously approved the merger of telecom giants AT&T and BellSouth. It marks the largest telecommunications merger in U.S. history. The Democratic commissioners on the FCC agreed to back the merger after AT&T made a pledge to adhere to net neutrality. Net neutrality is the concept that everyone, everywhere, should have free, universal and nondiscriminatory access to the Internet.
