It's become clear that the Internet as we know it was too vulnerable in its current configuration. We need the Internet 2.0 that is designed to be neutral from the ground up.
No one has solved the last mile problem because everyone was content to pay the ISPs and now look what's happened.
We need alternatives and we need them fast.
- jdavis703 9y agoInternet 1.0 will be "good enough" for most people, so only geeks will be on Internet 2.0. That's not a bad thing, but the internet of today is a way nicer place to be than the internet of the 90s was. And the reason it's nicer is because basically everyone I know is on it.
- amigoingtodie 9y agoI completely disagree for the exact same reason. Progress of humanity, etc.
- Dylan16807 9y agoIt's not hard to do at all. You can pass a law that forcibly unbundles the last mile, so dozens of ISPs can compete on even terms on the same wire. And that's purely a political will issue, not a "we need to invent alternatives" issue.
