Agreed.

Agreed as well. People might be interested in the net neutrality article 
I wrote on my blog, it's more on the technical part (but not really 
in-depth) and hasn't shown the political side of the debate at all.  I 
hope to put up a second part soon.

Beware though, it's a longish read around 6000 words and quite a bit 
written in rant style but then as a customer I do have the right to rant :)

Also if you look into the heart of it , it is very much a free speech 
and free expression issue which people somehow don't understand how 
important that is.  From a data toll to  a content-toll will have 
devastating effect on the IP available within the country. Businesses 
like yours and mine will suffer the most.

Let me know if I can help in anyway.
