The Fight for Free Speech: Will We Be the Greatest Generation?
I’m with Wellspring on this one.
While Steve has written a very nice article, he entirely misses the point of Net Neutrality. It is a point that should make every Conservative and Libertarian stand up and take notice.
Net Neutrality is Free Speech for the Internet. It means that I cannot be censored or prevented from accessing material that some government bureaucrat or corporate middle-manager dislikes (within the law, of course). It enforces honest business practices on ISP’s (no selling me an “unlimited use” line and then throttling my connection) and keeps companies from limiting access to information based on economic or political concerns.
In basically forces the ISP’s and the Government to view the Internet as a free and open roadway down which all may travel to disseminate and gather whatever information they wish, without restriction or toll roads.
Sorry Steve, but you are astoundingly wrong on Net Neutrality.
