This assumes all traffic is of the same kind, such as web traffic. For other protocols or use-cases, things like latency have a big impact on the content.
- openasocket 9y agoOK. But that doesn't have anything to do with Google offering different networks at different rates.
- grandalf 9y agoWell, customers who demand the higher tier service do so because their content requires it.
- openasocket 9y agoAnd Comcast Business charges more than regular internet, that's not a NN violation either. Charging more for more bandwidth is what ISPs do all the time, that doesn't have anything to do with net neutrality. Net neutrality has to do with packet discrimination: blocking or throttling traffic based on its content or destination. Google here does neither.
- grandalf 9y ago> Net neutrality has to do with packet discrimination: blocking or throttling traffic based on its content or destination So do you think that QoS to prioritize voip traffic violates network neutrality?
- openasocket 9y agoThat has nothing to do with this article or your claim that Google is violating net neutrality by offering different networks for different prices.
