Final answer:
The student's question appears to relate to the 'Protecting and Promoting the Open Internet' rule by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), which was an important component of the net neutrality regulations published in the Federal Register.
Step-by-step explanation:
The 2010 proposed rule you are referring to likely relates to the Federal Communications Commission's (FCC) rules, specifically those on net neutrality that were being debated around that time. Based on the information provided, the rule that went into effect with the publication of the January 2013 final rule could be the one titled "Protecting and Promoting the Open Internet," which was a significant part of the FCC's net neutrality regulations. These regulations aimed to ensure that internet service providers treat all data on the internet the same, without discriminating or charging differently by user, content, website, platform, or application.
Such rules were published in the Federal Register, the official journal of the federal government of the United States that contains government agency rules, proposed rules, and public notices. These are important aspects of how federal regulations like the FCC's net neutrality rules come into being after a period of public comment and revision.
