Re: Conversely
Naturally, it is an exaggerated proportion, but the similarity is intact. |

No it isn't
What you are talking about is like saying that no internet connection and a reduced speed are the same thing when they clearly are not. |

You're missing the comparison. I'm not saying these are net neutrality violations, but rather the effect is--or could be--similar. The, "Oh, if a few packets get dropped, that isn't our problem. That website could upgrade to our AwesomeService Plus™ routing to gaurantee their traffic." is the comparison to which I was referring. |

What happens when too many packets drop, "get lost", or are routed horribly? |

Screwups are along the same line.
Cox offered a security app that had blacklisted craigslist.
Cox is still neutral regarding craigslist. The security app is not.
Many, many of the ads on Craigslist, really aren't family friendly. I don't blame the app.
This one's on the end user, as long as Cox advises their users that uninstalling restores connectivity. |
