More on the Net Neutrality

I know I've posted before about this whole net neutrality. Which might possibly make it through this time around. And if we can't get them to properly label their connections(I doubt you could force it too, because these same companies are currently getting away with advertising unlimited usage of their internet connections but booting you off if you use to much bandwidth.) like I and previously commented about. I'm for this net neutrality as it is definitely needed. Letting the money grubbing telco's decided whats "best" for consumers is a joke. Nor is letting the market figure it out. There simply isn't enough competition for that to work. Anyway, I found this article, that gives a bit more detail about the situation, and I think its pretty close to accurate as for why the telco's want this net neutrality bill not to pass. I love the thought of them trying to outlaw encryption too... Thats like trying to stop the p2p networks... and we know how well thats worked out.
