[WISPA] Network Neutrality talking points

2017-12-15 Thread Mark Radabaugh

For your use, re-posted from last week:


*Talking Points for WISPA Members on “Net Neutrality” and “Internet 
Freedom” *


December 2017

*Overview for WISPA Members *

**

·These talking points are _not_ intended to be used proactively. WISPA 
is not taking a proactive role in advocacy on this issue, and we do not 
recommend that you do.


·The intent is to help you be prepared for media and public inquiries if 
they do come in.


·If you receive a query about your company’s position on net neutrality, 
or WISPA’s position, we encourage you to refer it to us to handle. 
Please send it to:


oDale Curtis, WISPA Communications Support, 
d...@dalecurtiscommunications.com 


·If you do choose to answer a media or public query:

oPlease let us know, preferably in advance; and

oPlease stick to this script; going off script could create problems for 
you and your business.


*General Tips *

**

·Any statements you make must be 100% truthful and backed-up with facts; 
so please don’t say anything that is untrue or unsupportable with facts.


·If you don’t know the answer to a question, just say so. A convenient 
way to say it is: “I don’t know about /that/, but what I do know is …”


·Don’t bring up other issues.

**

*Talking Points *

**

·*Let’s be clear: We support a free and open internet. *

oWe don’t block, throttle, or prioritize any content.

oWe disclose our terms of service in plain English.

oWe support robust privacy protections for our customers.

oThose are the core elements of “net neutrality,” and we support them.

**

·*We believe you can have a free and open internet without heavy-handed 
regulation and enforcement that is ill-suited for small providers. *


·What was wrong with the way the internet was regulated up until two 
years ago? It worked well then, and it will again.


·FCC regulations designed to treat all internet providers like large 
monopoly utilities – with open-ended and vaguely worded requirements, 
all subject to bureaucratic whim – are taking resources away from 
investment in under-served areas and diverting them instead toward 
lawyers and compliance consultants.


·When our compliance costs go up because of government action, we either 
have to reduce investment in our business or pass those costs on to our 
customers.

Re: [WISPA] Net neutrality bandwidth providers

2017-12-15 Thread Darin Steffl
Dan,

You have to understand if you're selling a residential internet package, it
is NOT dedicated. There has to be some oversubscription allowed for the ISP
to make a profit. If every sub we had used their plan 24/7 and expected the
speed to always be there and not dip down, we wouldn't make money and would
shutdown.

So yes, it is wrong and hurts an ISP if customers use and expect to max out
their connection all the time but specifically during the evening peak.
That's where it matters most.

If customers always want their bandwidth then they need to pay more to
upgrade backhaul, ap's, etc. If they're OK with slightly slower speeds
during peak but enough to still stream and not feel slow, then prices can
remain level.

Power companies issue peak time alerts during the summer and winter to
prevent brownouts or congestion in our terms. And they specifically state
in their newsletter that if people don't reduce their power demands during
their peak times, rates are going to increase as it costs more to handle
that load.

Fallacy. Imagine your local "all you can eat" buffet  charges $10 for lunch
which you really enjoy and find good value. One day a Sumo wrestling school
opens next door and the new customers eat them out every hour. Next week
lunch is $20 but you're eating the same thing.

You are not paying equally when you are part of the top percentile of
bandwidth consumers.

2017-12-15 Thread Tim Cailloux
I talked to a reporter on Net Neutrality yesterday, and this is one of
the things I highlighted, as a scenario in which an ISP could help
customers after Title II no longer applied.  Like, "I know your Internet
stinks right now; it's your XBox updates and your Windows updates, and
that's the reason you can't stream Netflix.  I can't manage traffic
priorities during peak hours for you."
I had a customer call for support because their PS4 was uploading and
saturating their upstream.  We ended the call with all electronics in
his house in a pile in the living room to prove that it was one of his
devices and not my service.

How is using what you pay for abuse?  In both instances described, the customer 
is using a large chunk of their bandwidth, but not using more than the plan 
alots.

Good story. This is the stuff that people don't understand. Policy enforcement

it's staunch supporters, is a really bad idea. They imagine it's about "big

the geeky few could pay less for their consumption and no back pressure on

Nothing. It wasn't mayhem in the decades before 2015 and it won't suddenly 
become a problem now. The big guys are always going to try some crap until

as imagined by it's staunch supporters, is a really bad idea. They imagine
it's about "big corporate" stifling competition and innovation but the very

complaints from Windows Update and Xbox Live Updates impacting customers 
connections, meaning they call in and say “I am paying for 20 Meg service and 
when I run a speed test I am only seeing 2 Meg Down or wny is my Netflix 
buffering”.  We go and look and they will have a windows update running in the 
background taking 18-19 Meg of their connection up and you have to explain that

I want to be able to throttle torrent users. Beyond that, I don't think it will 
affect us much in areas of high-competition.

become a problem now. The big guys are always going to try some crap until 
someone calls them on it, "net neutrality" or not.
