Federal agencies are empowered to make rules. That's how it works in the USA. If we depended on congress to make rules, nothing would ever get done.

This might be changing in a recent SCOTUS case [0]. The Court may indeed rule that agencies must defer to Congress (although usually they state that such cases aren't meant to be changing precedent as a whole and just rule in the particulars of one case).

#8> Title II regulation isn't just about net neutrality, Rosenworcel said, arguing that the reclassification will give the FCC more authority to protect national security on broadband networks. "When we stripped state-affiliated companies from China of their authority to operate in the United States, that action did not extend to broadband services, thanks to the retreat from Title II. This is a national security loophole that needs to be addressed," she said.
I know I'm far too cynical these days, but this smells like the beginning of the Great American Firewall.
