For 11 years, starting 12 years ago; the Open Internet Policy Statement which guided case-by-case action was adopted in 2005, but the case-by-case approach was struck down by the courts in 2010.
Title I-based neutrality regulations were adopted in 2010 and struck down by the courts in 2014.
Title II-based neutrality regulations were adopted in 2015, and repealed just now.
