Good, quick read on net neutrality: the FCC has no cojones |
|
Involving Verizon, Comcast, and other broadband Internet providers--wired or wireless--is like inviting Al Qaeda, North Korea, and Iran to work out a plan for defending the nation, or inviting BP, Exxon-Mobil, and Shell to work out details to protect our environment from the perils of offshore drilling. We have government agencies that are supposed to manage these activities. Negotiating a compromise with the industry that is supposed to be regulated violates the agency's responsibility to the nation.http://www.pcworld.com/businesscenter/article/202971/net_neutrality_reading_between_the_googleverizon_lines.html?tk=hp_blg
