Wow. Net neutrality relates to safety nets - which we're taking apart as fast as possible in the US. The homeless on our street and elsewhere in NYC attest to that. There's not much mention of class in her discussion. The way it is here now - the rich get better healthcare - or get health- care period while the poor get barely nothing. Obama's healthcare bill didn't go very far and is being dismantled. Information should be free; it's not as if the owners of most, if not all, ISPs are suffering. In our lovely country the rich 1% now own 90% and if Wisconsin and other ugly admins get their way, they'll get the rest. Mike Davis wrote about enclaving decades ago in City of Quartz, and this pricing scheme is nothing but; god help us all if the rich can't get there tn^x broadband flooding smoothly.
People I know here, whatever, we're all hoping for a general strike out of Wisconsin. What we're afraid of is obviously settlement with a whimper, knocking the protests down into whittled compromise.
