Apples & Crumpets

Does it really matter what the CEO of a U.K. ISP believes when it comes to net neutrality? After all it can, and probably will be different for each country. After all U.K. citizens don't mind all kinds of things that "upset" us here in the US. "Favoritism for certain companies in the industry" certainly has been the norm and not just in the communications industry either, but part of the point of net neutrality is the information has to be treated the same and not given favoritism for corporate partners, etc. and that is what your customers want(whether they know it or not), so it is not B.S. The reason why we shouldn't get it from the ISP's is the true B.S.

When it gets out of control like when the railroads were doing it in the 50's expect the govt to step in and bash heads ... I hope

Right...so that the government can heavily subsidize whats left at the taxpayers expense. Socialized Internet is what we exactly need.

When we had subsidized telephone and power it was available to almost everyone.
The privatization of the telecom infrastructure has made it available only to the chosen few who have the most money.
