[Paulsblog.pulver.com] Paul Kapustka's Blog: Net neutrality a minor topic at Google Press Day: The telcos' pitch that IPTV needs special pipes for streaming capabilities is "crap," Cerf said, asserting that the powers of packets and IP infrastructures can find other ways to solve content-delivery issues.

 [Chris Abraham - Because the Medium is the Message] The Internet is Not Threatened by Net Neutrality... : Google and companies that support net neutrality rules (a group that may even include Microsoft, but I am John Carroll, not Microsoft, in case anybody was wondering) want to be able to continue as 18 wheelers who pay the same fees (if any) as standard automobiles, even though their traffic is responsible for most damage to the road. That's one model, and is largely the way things work now, but that doesn't mean it is a fair model.

 [Techremarks] Read the whole remark: We still think that new age players like Apple and Google can execute much quicker and better than the Telecom-Sky tandem-monopoly. As long as Telecom can somehow be forced or pressured to open up the broadband quality just a little bit more, these players will be loose to play.

[Paul Kapustka's Blog] TelecomNext Tuesday -- The Big Ed Show: we'll cut him some slack on the "hair" issue) ignored Walter's softshoe and answered cleanly, claiming that the FCC does have the authority to "Madison River" anyone who tries to push the limits of the net neutrality principles. And after an exciting tour of AT&T's disaster-relief trucks (bet that just made the lifetime lawyer tingle with geek excitement, eh?), Martin deigned to stop in a hallway aisle to take a few shouted questions from a press mob.

[Blind Mind’s Eye] The telecoms’ real concern on network n... : The pro-market forces in the network neutrality debate seem to be missing a single, very important point, on one of the key aspects of network neutrality. Why should Google, Amazon, my blog and others pay for bandwidth at every network that our traffic flows through? More importantly, why should the “market decide” who wins on something this

[ Nyquist Capital] Net Neutrality - Tragedy of the Commons: What angers AT&T is that these payments may not neccessarily go directly to AT&T but instead to AT&T’s competitors - who share infrastructure access (network neutrality); The transfer of data from Google may go through a competing Telecom and wind up on AT&T’s network as the end-consumer may be an AT&T customer, or, the customer of someone who is an AT&T customer.

 [digiblade] Net Neutrality is Bad for You: Underlying the idea of “neutrality” is the idea that Internet Protocol embeds no assumptions or values, and the mesh of interconnect agreements we call the Internet is likewise “neutral”.

 [Government.zdnet.com] Telecom moves to House vote | ZDNet Government Blog | ZDNet.com: I'm not one for draconian regulations, nor do I want to stifle the tradition of innovation that has made the Net so successful, the accusation that opponents of Net neutrality rules aim at those who want to protect the principle. But it seems to me that even if network operators don't actually kill off their content-provider rivals, failure to regulate this issue would end up stifling innovation because older, established firms will have the money to pay extra for top-tier preferential service, while smaller, innovative ones will be less able to do so.

[Networkingpipeline.com] Networking Pipeline | Blog: Google's Barry Schnitt told Paul in an email: "Google is not discussing sharing of the costs of broadband networks with any carrier. We believe consumers are already paying to support broadband access to the Internet through subscription fees and, as a result, consumers should have the freedom to use this connection without limitations."

 [Huffingtonpost.com] The Blog | Adam Green: Mike McCurry -- Hurting The Internet ...: What McCurry did not tell the public was that during the Clinton years, the FCC actively enforced net neutrality -- the Internet's First Amendment -- against his telecom clients. Common carrier statutes have in fact been a bedrock principle of telecommunications law since 1934, and in 1996 Congress ratified that with a commitment to network neutrality.
