I don't like the idea of providers needing more $$ or letting them be biased at what speed they provided specific content, BUT...
I REALLY don't like the idea of the government getting it's hands on ANYTHING.
The government's brown finger will certainly turn this to $hi+ like everything else it touches.
Without even getting into conspiracies or any other big brother scenario; the government F's up everything it gets involved in.
There have probably already been billions of tax dollars pi$$ed away just on the FCC's studies, experts, consultants, and whatever else some representative's brother in law calls themselves already.
Yup. Then a temporary tax will follow to pay for the regulation; which they will forget to repeal. Just like the phone bills. $50 for a line, $55 in taxes and fees.
The EFF always is on point for consumer Internet issues; and they have some outstanding resources for free.
