I feel I should be able to manage my network any way I see fit and if someone doesn't like it move on... I think the larger providers should have that same ability.
But, if laws like this continue I'll give my customers an option... I'll let them choose between a "1mb up 1mb down they can do what they want solution" or they can have for the same price my 10mb down 3mb up solution if they agree I get to manage their bandwidth.... That covers any enforcement from above. Further, if I can't block their torrent traffic or slow it down legally I can fire them as a customer - thats one way to manage the problem and its legal... There is such thing as BAD customers and it often makes sense to get rid of them because they actually cost you money.

More regulations is less freedom. If someone doesn't like the way ISP A operates, move to ISP B. If they don't like ISP B, find ISP C, or start ISP C, or maybe you shouldn't be doing what you're wanting to in the first place. > > > ----- > Mike Hammett > Intelligent Computing Solutions > http://www.ics-il.com > > > > > From: Jack Unger > Sent: Saturday, September 19, 2009 4:38 PM > To: WISPA General List > Subject: Re: [WISPA] Net Neutrality > > > Congress and the FCC would define "reasonable".
