Re: How is this a "Network Neutrality" debate/protest?
said by Johnnycanuk :
Definitely agree for the copper loop. The internet infrastructure, such as DSLAM, Core routing equipment, etc. was not. It was built on Bell Nexxia's dime and the return on investment flows through Sympatico. The argument could be made that wireline dollars funded that, but you could also argue that it was built after the CRTC opened up the market to competition.
Are you fuckin stupid?
Where did the "return on the dime" come from? Nothing would have happened without consumer tax dollars. They would not have the network to run their DSLAMs on without the network.
You can't seperate it. THEY MADE MONEY BECAUSE WE LET THEM. Just because they reinvest those profits, does not mean those profits were not the result of tax payer money. |
