On the flip side, if a crisis happens in an area and the local ISPs want to designate the data going to and from the disaster area as high priority, under a net neutrality regulation this would be illegal! Be careful what you wish for here, unintended consequences abound in all regulation decisions. I am against net neutrality, and I believe anti-trust laws will already protect us from most of what the net neutrality regulations try to scare us with.

umm I think you just hit the real problem. The telco's and cable companies control who you use in your area. THAT'S IT...
Lets not put a band aid on a problem and Get GOVERNMENT INVOLVED. nothing becomes free when you involve the gov. Think about it.

The best way to combat the mainstream media is to buy music, movies, magazines, and newspapers only from alternative media, independent studios, and record labels. Sell/trade any DVDs and CDs you have from the big 6 media conglomerates. Don't use myspace or IGN which are owned by Fox. Give up a little so your kids don't have to give up a lot.

Pardon me, they're owned by Google. Whew! Sigh of relief!

But the market for the internet providerness is very monopolistic. There are very high barriers to entry and whatnot which make a monopoly what it is. That is why there is such little competition. Cuz it is a monopoly. I think the government should stay away from teh internet tubes, because they would prolly fuck it up more than the corporations. Damn government always taking away my moonshine and my still!!

Uhhh...what?

For some reason you dont seem to understand the implications...or cant seem to see whats going on.
If comcast could go as far as to pay jobless,indifferent idiots to fill the seats at the debate at Boston,wouldnt the ulterior motive be just as extreme?
I see the move as plainly desperate...

Rossta, you are retarded. I have owned an independent ISP. Prior to the break up of AT&T back in the early '80's a small business was at the mercy of "MA BELL" and she had no mercy. Telephone costs were outrageous. The reason things were so expensive is because the telephone companies essentially did not invest in infrastructure for about 50 years. In the early '90's when I started my ISP government regulation made it possible.

Hey Clemtoe,

Dude, the last time ma bell had that much power, it cost 25 cents per minute to call someone who was five miles away. Either you have a really short memory or you are way young and naive.
