The Hypocrisy of AT&T’s “Internet Bill of Rights”
- saurik 9y agoI didn't read AT&T's "Internet Bill of Rights" as "we have always believed this"... or even "we want to believe this now"... I read it as a not-at-all-subtle (though maybe too subtle for the EFF?) way of calling everyone else out for being hypocrites, and saying "if you want to actually do this, then you had better be prepared to do it correctly, and you need to particularly realize how the chunk of the harm and control is coming from companies like Google--companies that even the more expansive definitions in these rules currently would never apply to--despite the fact that you are holding them up as heroes here, and just solve the problem entirely... that, or you are being a hypocrite that cares more about screwing with us (AT&T) than solving a real-world problem".
