A Clear Explanation On Net NeutralityOver the past several weeks, I've posted several pieces on the FCC and the issue surrounding net neutrality.
The issue around neutrality though, has been around for several years. But it only came into the mainstream light when Netflix raised some serious issues of it getting shafted by big tier carriers. Some may not agree with what I've said in my previous articles, such as this one, but the issue remains the same.
Regardless of what might happen, which is to say, assumptions and conjecture aside, the issue is real, and the solutions focus squarely on the issue that Netflix, Level3, Google, and other big tech companies have raised.
Some in the comments here have disagreed—which is fine, as everyone can have his or her say. This is why the forums and comments succeed. However, others have resorted to attacking me on a personal level and that's not acceptable. In fact, the ones who are raising a stink on a personally offensive level, seems to have no clue about net neutrality at all, and instead harp on the doom and gloom strings of potential collapse of the Internet as a whole because of would-be government failure. Which is to say, they're saying the FCC's proposal is a bag of crap because they "feel" or "believe" the government "will ruin everything."
Let's stick with the facts, because you know, we're factual here.
Actually, the Wall Street Journal has a good video explaining the principle behind net neutrality. Check it out here:
