Winners

President Obama

The president has repeatedly advocated for net neutrality. He hailed yesterday's decision, saying it would "protect innovation and create a level playing field for the next generation of entrepreneurs."

Activists

Internet users flooded the FCC with a record-breaking 4 million public comments, and a slowdown across many of the Web's most prominent sites last year showed the potential impact of Internet fast lanes and slow lanes.

Content creators

Services such as Netflix, whose shares closed up 1.7 percent yesterday, won't have to worry about paying more than the competition to ensure users get the best possible experience.

Losers

Republicans

The GOP opposed the regulations, and the two Republican appointees to the FCC voted against the rules. House Speaker John Boehner called it a "misguided scheme" that would "put the federal government in control of the Internet."

Internet service providers

Companies including Verizon and Comcast were staunchly against net neutrality, calling the regulation stifling and "heavy-handed."

Wireless providers

The regulations included wireless providers such as AT&T and Sprint, which were not covered by the original FCC rules in 2010.
