Net Neutrality Update

It appears there will be several of these updates as the debate wears on. A new proposal entered the U.S. House of Representatives this past week. According to the article New Net neutrality plan may ruffle feathers, Rep. Charles Gonzalez proposed an amendment to the telecommunications bill that no one should be allowed to participate in discriminatory practices, not broadband providers, commercial Web sites or search engines. However, in a strange turn of events, "Gonzalez doesn't even support the idea of mandated Net neutrality. Rather, his amendment appears to have been intended as a kind of poison pill that would force Internet companies to back away from their own requests." Check out the article to find out why.
