The company has offered to accept the rules adopted by the Federal Communications Commission early this year, according to reports that surfaced Wednesday. It was just last month that the FCC denied petitions from a slew of companies — including AT&T — to delay its implementation of the rules. Now it appears that opposition may be dwindling — assuming that AT&T is able to seal the DirecTV deal.
