FCC's Martin on Network Neutrality

Federal Communications Commission Chairman Kevin Martin spoke at a Network Neutrality conference in Denmark Tuesday, saying policymakers have a duty to promote and preserve the vibrant and open character of the Internet while maintaining infrastructure companies' incentive in the infrastructure needed to provide faster broadband to more people. He said, "We should encourage a regulatory environment that promotes competition, fosters investment in broadband networks and infrastructure, and drives innovation. And, at the same time, we must expand affordable access and sustain an open Internet. By doing so, we afford technology innovators and end users the freedom to shape the Internet Economy of today and tomorrow."
