OTI was mentioned in an Ars Technica article about concerns that the Federal Communications Commission’s soon-to-be-approved net neutrality rules will allow harmful 5G fast lanes, with OTI having argued in a joint filing last month that the FCC’s proposed no-throttling rule should ban not only selective slowing down, but also selective speeding up.

In a different filing last month, several advocacy groups similarly argued that the "no-throttling rule needs to ban selective speeding up, in addition to slowing down." That filing was submitted by the American Civil Liberties Union, the Electronic Frontier Foundation, the Open Technology Institute at New America, Public Knowledge, Fight for the Future, and United Church of Christ Media Justice Ministry.
