Net Neutrality – Promoting Fear Versus Reality

Cute net-neutrality propaganda video on how all the big Telecoms are going to decide what we are going to surf and they will drive small online businesses out of business.

Digg post: “Welcome to the Internet of Tomorrow with Net-Neutrality out of the way.”



Not sure what the truth is on net neutrality. I do not think the Government should get involved with the internet except to protect people from harm. Net neutrality as I understand is advocating a lot of Government regulations.

I would like to see the Telecommunications industry maintain healthy competition in service offerings and invest in their infrastructure. This way we can have world-class internet service, but at the same time have cheap internet service. I do not want Telecoms restricting where I can surf or have multi-tier pricing or superior service for just selected content providers.

This term net neutrality sound nice, but it is really a proposal to regulate the telecommunications industry. It also continues to allow content providers such as Yahoo! and Google to get “free access” to consumers without having to invest in improving telecommunications infrastructure.

I hope the decision makers can see through all the hype and keep the internet rolling along getting bigger, better, and cheaper.
