Re: Hmmm...
I agree. Some Congressional Committee discussing "network neutrality" doesn't mean that it's going to happen.
Watch, the providers will gut the concept of neutrality to the point where it's useless.
And does anyone care? Nah, these are the phone companies. They can do anything.
Where's Eliot Spitzer when you (really) need him?

1 edit | Spitzer actually will have an impact based on the NY State level especially as he appoints a new PSC when he wins.
So dont worry about Spitzer 
I see you are in New Jersey however so it all depends on the NJ PSC or the equivalent thereof. |

| Yeah, I'm in Jersey, with our wonderfully corrupt politics (former Newark resident) and impossible bureaucracy (NJ BPU = NY PSC only more corrupt since it's Jersey).
Granted, I'm not saying Spitzer's a saint or anything, but considering his anti-corporate record, I would think the phone companies and cable companies present a very large and tempting target to him, and I would hope that he takes them on and leads the charge (since Jersey will always follow suit - ha ha what a pun!!1!).
Only time will tell.

| Spitzer's much more anti-corrupt than anticorporate. That he happens to go after a lot of corporations says more about those corporations being corrupt than it does about Spitzer's stance on corporations.

If he only goes after Corporations that are corrupt or corrupting politics then I will have no problem with him as the Telcos and their dollars are definitely corrupting our political system.
