UPDATED - Article about Grants & Net Neutrality

This just in !

I know it's a USA story but it's about something near and dear to many of our hearts.

"Two federal agencies are now ready to hand out $4 billion in grants and loans to help bring broadband to the people and stimulate the economy, but applicants have to promise to play fairly with whatever devices, applications and services users want to use, vice president Joe Biden announced today...."

Obama's administration is much more technically savvy than any other Presidency the US has ever managed to elect. This doesn't really surprise me. I remember Obama as being very pro-net neutrality on the campaign trail.

Still, it's good to see that they're actually following through on some of this stuff. Talking the talk only goes so far.
