| I agree with the idea of Network Neutrality in general.... ... however I worry that the Government's attempt to "enforce" it will actually be controlled by lobbyists and that once a "rule" or "law" is in effect it will actually provide great wiggle-room for Neutrality to NOT be enforceable.... In other words, this is a serious issue, and I don't think Congress can touch it without screwing it up.
I surely hope I'm wrong.... :/

Midlothian, VA | And there's the proverbial fly in the ointment. Politicians and bureaucrats act in their own self interest just like any corporate CEO, it's just the incentives are different. Government oversight and planning boards are open to corruption and rent-seeking just as much as corporate boardrooms (I would say even more).
It's like an economics professor I had used to say and I think applies here mutatis mutandis: if you want to get money out of politics, you have to get politics out of money. |
