Net Neutrality Debate Turns Ideological


NET NEUTRALITY DEBATE TURNS IDEOLOGICAL
[SOURCE: Human Events, AUTHOR: Matt Kibbe]
[Commentary] High-tech giant Google, locking arms with MoveOn.org and a host of high-tech lobbyists, is pressing Congress to pass "net neutrality" mandates purportedly needed to protect the open nature of the Internet, where all consumers, content providers, and application providers can interact. In reality, there is nothing neutral about this effort. It is a clear push to grant the federal government sweeping new controls over the Internet while providing big content companies like Google access to broadband providers at regulated rates.
