Re: VIACOM - don't be STUPID - keep your sites open

You forgot -

5. You are violating the principals of net-neutrality. Perhaps the FCC should get involved and fine them $3 / year for each IP address that is blocked.

·WOW Internet and..

what is the principals of net-neutrality? Since when is Net Neutrality even in place?

And by the way they're not slowing content down or anything. they're fully blocking and if you don't like it change providers. That's easy. Or maybe tell TWC to pay the rate increase and offer to have your bill raise to get the content.

Viacom can't violate NN any more than you or I can from our homes.

Even though it's not the common NN problem, the specter of "delay, degrade, deny" deals like NN advocates worry about suddenly seem to appear here!

Internet Access Providers ought to be making deals with subscribers to connect them to the Internet. If their deal with Viacom has any Internet-related component to it, it ought to be examined!
