Noticed in the comments section of the Washington Monthly blog, commenting on a post about net neutrality.
It’s not about regulation. That is a classic straw man. It’s about censorship. The attack on net neutrality may be an effort by the telcos to increase profits, but their allies in the White House have other reasons to eviscerate net neutrality: Specifically, net neutrality is the best mechanism to force accountability in an era of media prostration before the Bush-Cheney regime.
The complexities of various regulatory regimes are distractions from the main issue: net neutrality is the best bulwark against internet censorship.
