FCC Outlines Plan for “Net Neutrality” — Tue, 22 Sep 2009 17:10:02 +0000

[...] The plan lives up to President Obama’s campaign promise to “protect the openness of the Internet” who also said that throttling of BitTorrent and other P2P applications would be illegal. [...]

I personally like Ron Paul. He’s the man! But honestly.. someone needs to stop this internet bs. We need full net neutrality… and the anti-p2p bill going through congress needs to be thrown out a long with those who support it.

Of all the people that could be going for the position of the first female president it has to be some dumb ass blond named Hillary. Shes just as big of a puppet as Bush is sadly shes probably going to get the position and start the 3rd world war.

If elected

1. Obama would bring home the troops a LOT quicker than Hillary.
2. He’d fulfill his promises to support net neutrality.
3. He’d make a better president than Hillary

Unfortunately his chances of getting elected are zilch.

Hillary regardless of her faults is the only one that has a chance of winning. At this point having a less than perfect Democrat in office is FAR better than another four years with a dumb ass Republican.

I only hope that she chooses her VP wisely. If she doesn’t pick someone with a drawl she’s in trouble.

I still don’t have a Clue what He was Talking about ! This could create a two-tier Internet in which websites with the best relationships with network providers can get the fastest access to consumers while all competing websites remain in a slower lane. Such a result would threaten innovation the open tradition and architecture of the Internet and competition among content and backbone providers. It would also threaten the equality of speech through which the Internet has begun to transform American political and cultural discourse.
What The Hell does that have to do with ISP’s Throttling Bandwith on Downloading Content on P2P networks ? Politician Double Talk to act like They know what They are talking about ! Nothing More Nothing Less.

mach-1 just because you don’t understand a topic doesn’t mean it doesn’t make sense. The article makes sense and deals with net neutrality. Essentially isp’s are trying to decide what information gets the right of way over their lines making the internet have two customers those with money and those without. This would tip the balance in favor of big corporations who can buy their way into the fast lane and crush their competition. The law would make this practice illegal and no isp could traffic shape. Its a good idea and one that is long overdue.
