Short Take: OpenNet brief to support Portland

The OpenNet Coalition, an ISP-backed group supporting equal access to cable Internet networks, will file an amicus brief this week supporting the city of Portland, Oregon's right to require so-called open access in an appeals court case on the controversial issue. A ruling is expected in the closely-watched case in October. Separately, OpenNet said its ISP membership has more than doubled in recent months to 750 member companies.
