Kinda' like calling the pending censorship doctrine, the "fairness" doctrine... Fairness Doctrine or net neutrality? The Fairness Doctrine has been dead for quite a while. However, the FCC is now considering rules to insure net neutrality. What is net neutrality? Did you forget that you entered into a contract with your ISP? If you don't like what one offers you can excercise your right to choose a different ISP. Or, you can negotiate with your ISP to provide you with better quality service. The ISP really isn't the issue. They're a dime a dozen. The issue is the broadband providers. There are just a few of those. They're mostly backbones, such as MCI, Spring, UUNET... MCI no longer exists, see Verizon. Sprin(g)t no longer exists, see AT&T. UUNET no longer exists, see Verizon. Besides UUNet never owned the long lines, the had modems at the POPs. The misnomer of public and private traffic on the Internet blurs the fact that it was all privately owned. Try again. Whatever... it's still the broadband providers not the ISP. Net neutrality is about not censoring content. So, what point are you trying to make? The previous poster seemed to think NN was a bad thing. -- Nom=de=Plume |
