Communications law includes issues related to radio, television, networks, cable, telephony, and the Internet. Most communication and media outlets are regulated by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) through the Federal Communications Act of 1934 and related statutes. The FCC enforces regulations designed to ensure competition among cable and satellite companies and places restrictions on indecent programming. It also issues broadcast licenses and protects consumers by rules and policies related to local and long distance telephone service. Although the FCC does not directly regulate the Internet, a growing body of law is developing around Internet usage.
