Hi,
Been trying to keep up with the Net Neutrality debate but obviously it's a confusing issue. My question is, don't we already pay for faster service? Don't websites pay based on the amount of bandwidth they need to serve out? I know I pay a premium price for cable internet service because I get more bandwidth. Seems like most people are willing to keep going as we are now -- where the price is proportional to the speed.
How is what the telecoms are proposing different? Are they suggesting that they should be allowed to arbitrarily limit or increase the speeds with which certain sites or traffic can reach me, regardless of what that site and I are paying in terms of bandwidth?
