Well, its good to see that in some jurisdictions, at least, there's widespread support for net neutrality. That said, we'll see if the Dutch Parliament maintains its resolve in the face of the massive amounts of lobbying they're sure to get from ISPs.
As a side note, is anyone else massively impressed by the quality of Google Translate these days? I mean, the quality of the translation is far above and beyond that of the "typical" machine translated text. Its almost as if a person with English as a second language had read and rewritten the text from the original Dutch.
- petervandijck 15y agoThe quality of the translation is astounding, you're right. Not perfect though. If you select some text, you'll see Google let's users submit improved translations, so some of it may actually have been manual.
- tybris 15y agoOverall I'm impressed by the translation, but by translating "Kamer" (Lower House) to "Court" in the abstract the meaning of the piece changes.
- aerique 15y agoI don't think there will be much lobbying from ISPs, definitely not XS4ALL which will probably have lobbied for net neutrality. The telcos on the other hand...
- Confusion 15y agoI don't understand why people are impressed by translations like these. They're a far cry from 'acceptable' to me and reading them still feels like removing a nasty splinter with the help of a needle, while running a steeple chase.
