Re: What will Martin do about AT&T doing what Comcast does?
Yeah, this is an interesting issue for sure. What you're saying is that the FCC's neutrality principles prevent an ISP from prohibiting any sort of activity in their TOS, and I don't think that's right.
There's a difference between selectively deprioritizing certain traffic that you haven't forbidden by policy, and clearly prohibiting its use in your TOS which users agree to when they sign up.

Martin claims that blocking or deprioritizing a method of access(protocol?) is against the FCC principles. We'll see if he enforces that across the board.

But, AT&T Wireless is doing neither of those things.
