It sounded like the price would be different if you used a certain network provider, which is not-net-neutral.

- atYevP 6y agoI believe in this case Cloudflare and Backblaze would be considered service providers, not network providers (like Comcast or AT&T, etc...). And you'd still need to pay each service individually for the service they're providing. It's an alternative to say, Amazon S3 and their own CDN which also does not charge for egress in between the two services (since they own both). But in our case, you pay Backblaze B2 Cloud Storage of the storage, and you pay Cloudflare for their CDN capabilities, the partnership simply makes the transfer between our storage and their CDN free.
- anotheracct_ 6y agoThe service they provide is a network... That's some impressive hair-splitting. I don't understand you. If you don't believe in net neutrality, which is obvious through your actions, you can just say so instead of cowardly dodging it. Or if you truly somehow thought you could support net neutrality, without being neutral to networks, allow me to dispel your illusion and excuse.

- sp332 6y agoTransit does cost different amounts of money depending on who you negotiate transit with. That's not part of net neutrality.
