Founder Of OLPC: Maybe Net Neutrality Isn’t Such A Good Idea After All
- ZenoArrow 12y agoFFS! The solution to the problem is simple, ISPs (and mobile providers) should be competing to deliver the fattest pipe for the lowest cost, with no extra "value add". All this stuff about "not all bits are equal" shouldn't even be something we need to consider, if the bandwidth is abundant then any potential issue here goes away. As for the pacemakers vs. Netflix argument, decent web routers have something called QoS that allow you to prioritise web content, that's at the level that such decisions should be made, not made by ISPs and mobile providers.
