I see that petition has already meet the required signature count. I haven't followed the state of petitions.whitehouse.gov; do we expect them to actually comment on this petition?
I am not sure. There seems to be evidence that they do not respond to a few petitions, even when they meet the 100K signatures (at least immediately)[1]. Since [1]'s release, it appears that they have responded to a few of the petitions mentioned, and if you look at the site itself[2] (assuming "popular" is actually sorting by the number of signatures) there are only 15 unanswered petitions that meet the 100K requirement (though they changed the limit a few times and some may have met the original requirement). I suspect that they only respond to petitions that are in the mutual interest of the public and the politicians themselves but I have no evidence to support it.
This actually isn't a net neutrality issue because back in 2009 when the FCC was writing the open internet order it decided not to mess with peering and interconnection disputes. So designating ISPs as common carriers could be a first step here, but it wouldn't be the only step.
Could you explain in a little more detail? I was under the impression that the FCC would fix prices for common carriers, and therefore they would have to at least charge everyone in the same manner.
