Put The Pieces Together
This is about a two piece puzzle. Simple.
Feds OK Fee for Priority Web Traffic
There are dozens of discussions going on about the different meanings of this but I think Jason Lee Miller (and perhaps one or two others) has it nailed! And it isn’t rocket science once again…
Jason asks: What does the Department of Justice have to do with this topic? Then gives us the answer;
What could it be? Oh right. They like to subpoena people. For data. ISPs. Like AT&T. Net Neutrality protection would prevent AT&T from being able to sniff around your data packets. Pesky laws.
“It would seem that the President and the Justice Department cannot do enough for AT&T and the other companies that agreed to spy on the American people,” said Harold Feld, Senior Vice President of Media Access Project, a 35-year-old nonprofit organization dedicated to protecting the First Amendment, in a statement.
“Without network neutrality, companies are free to turn over user information without a warrant or block users from desired content – as AT&T recently did ‘accidentally’ by blocking Pearl Jam’s criticism of the President during a concert performance carried on AT&T’s broadband service.”
There they go again - First Amendment my a**, Net Neutrality my a**, its all about bending over for the gov. eh? And they try their damndest to make it look like they care about us…
Thanks Jason.
