Title II is the only tool the FCC currently has to enforce net neutrality. It's also what was in place until the mid-2000s. It doesn't change the FCC rulemaking process, which often takes years from start to implementation, is subject to judicial review, specifically disallows arbitrary and capricious changes, and can be overridden any time Congress likes. The claims that Title II classification did/will stifle investment and Section 706 classification did/will encourage it aren't supported by the record of the last 20 years.
