Sprint is no longer slowing down the wireless speeds of its heaviest users. Sprint altered its policies in the wake of the FCC's net neutrality rules, which went into effect June 12. Sprint had been throttling those customers who consumed the most mobile data in areas where its network was congested. Sprint said it thinks its network management policies should be accepted under the new rules, but made the change just in case. "Sprint doesn't expect users to notice any significant difference in their services now that we no longer engage in the process," said Sprint. Under the FCC's net neutrality rules, network operators are not allowed to slow down internet speeds.
