We the people ask the federal government to Propose a new Administration policy:

Mandate Free Internet Streaming of All Over the Air Television Channels

Created by A.B. on August 07, 2016

Commercial over the air television stations exploit their position by only streaming content to people who pay for private cable and satellite providers. An example is NBC streaming the 2016 Olympics in Rio. This is abusive because they operate under provision from the Federal Communications Commission. It also harms people who are outside the range of over the air signals. Given that both the internet and airwaves are regulated by the FCC it should be required that all carriers who create over the air content should make this content available for free at least as a live stream over the internet.
