(Wall Street Journal) — Big phone and cable companies are outgunning Silicon Valley in last-minute lobbying to shape a pending Federal Communications Commission proposal to prevent Internet providers from interfering with web traffic.

But they’re now trying to make sure the rules that are enacted are as positive for their businesses as possible.
