Net Neutrality
I just found out about this thing called net neutrality. Basically, it's the concept that ISPs should not block certain programs, services, or websites in order to encourage their customers to use other programs, services, or websites that benefit the ISP. For example, if SBC Yahoo blocked Google so people would use Yahoo to search. Or if AOL blocked Yahoo Messenger so people would use AIM.
Some people say Congress should pass a law regulating net neutrality. Others say that Congress would not be able to regulate net neutrality and that it would end up a giant mess.
What are your thoughts about this issue?
