Negative. People who support net neutrality do not know what net neutrality really is.
Net neutrality is a push by the big corporations to avoid having to pay for the pipeline they use. Google, Netflix, and the like that use huge amounts of bandwidth. You are witnessing rent seeking 101, the corporations on one side are trying to get regulations to help themselves.
- AnthonyMouse 7y agoCompanies that use large amounts of bandwidth pay for all of it. They pay the full cost of bringing that traffic to a peering exchange. Comcast isn't going to pick it up for free from Google Headquarters. Carrying the traffic from the peering exchange to the end customer is what the end customer is paying the ISP for. Charging for that again is double dipping, using the leverage created by the last mile monopoly to charge for what has already been paid for.
- president 7y agoAre you saying that ISPs aren't being paid fairly today?
