DOJ advises that Net Neutrality could hamper development of the Internet

4 pointsby youngnhover 17 years ago
Bad news and the flawed analogies still persist. This time instead of tubes, the internet is likened to the Post Office charging more for express mail.

Talk about spin.<p>They use the example of the post office, saying you can pay different amounts for different speeds. That's not what net neutrality prevents. Net neutrality would prevent the situation where you send off two order forms at the same postal rate, but one company gets their order form faster because they're a subsidiary of the post office, or have paid a big fee.
