The US Federal Communications Commission is to announce plans on Tuesday to reinstate so-called net neutrality rules governing broadband providers, according to people briefed on the matter.
I’m probably in favor of net neutrality legislation (I’m not 100% sold on the concept as the whole issue of monopolistic ISPs is a government created issue, so asking government to resolve it doesn’t necessarily work for me).
But you completely lose me when you equate Internet access with civil liberties and rights. We have no more right to an Internet than we do to an ice cream stand on the corner.
