Is it real?BTW I have seen an IPTV operator who allows browsing internet on TV for particular sites and those sites are listed similarly like above. Also many of us could have seen limited website browsing options provided by WAP providers (e.g. in Airtel Live, Vodafone Connect). Above list looks similiar to WAP sites by mobile operators.I just hope above list is not really by any ISP :notallowed:
 
Net neutrality is alive and well for now. There was an important vote at the FCC last week and they voted to keep it. So this ad by admin is outdated for now :)

Federal regulators took an important step Thursday toward prohibiting broadband providers from favoring or discriminating against certain kinds of Internet traffic.

Despite the concerns of the telecommunications industry and the agency's two Republicans, the Federal Communications Commission voted to begin writing so-called ''network neutrality'' regulations to prevent phone and cable companies from abusing their control over the market for broadband access.

I would say current FCC chairman is very pro net neutrality. he wants to add two more freedoms to the existing four, nondiscrimination and transparency.

John McCain has taken up the fight for the telcos, so watch his moves.
 
FCC rules are only applicable in USA right? this was just a sarcastic plan drawn by someone to highlight the problems that would arrive if governments around the world neglect net neutrality principals. people still do not get it why it is important to maintain the freedom that comes with getting an internet connection.
 
I think it was to influence those in the US to vote for net-neutrality. If the US retains it then things remain as is, not the other way around. As everyone peers with them.For now the ppl are ahead i'm not sure how long for as ISPs would like to do away with it. Lots of ppl also see this as govt. regulation intruding into private space. Telling companies they cannot do this or that.Should bring this topic up with matt carley and see what he thinks. Ask him what happens if net neutraility goes away what it will mean for customers and as ISP, hypothetically speaking.
