FCC makes a good point, CDV over private net, its a phone co. I think what the FCC is pondering on is, if its their own, then their a phone company, not an information service.
Best of my knowledge, "voip" like movies, etc. was an internet service, basically "data", since what was viewed, watched, talked or heard over was categorized as an informational data stream, it was all treated as the internet.
If C is now saying CDV is a private network, voip technology or not, its a phone company, thats the point I think the FCC is trying to make.
If I were C, I would advise the FCC that they will mix the voip with the rest & just leave the throttling to bittorrent, if I am correct and that was the initial plan, otherwise they could see regulation and surprise taxes added to their phone service.
Since the service is delivered over the internet, caps would now apply for their own voip service as well but they could just choose to waive the caps if customers take their CDV service. |
