Nice blog over at Savetheinternet.com, Stopping the Big Giveaway - by John Kerry, where he talks about how the will not let the telecom bill pass without Net Neutrality, and how not having it will affect the digital divide, a term he says is so cliched that it is turning to mush.
On Wednesday in the Senate Commerce Committee I warned that those of us who believe in net neutrality will block legislation that doesn’t get the job done.
It looks like that’s the fight we’re going to have.
The Commerce Committee voted on net neutrality and it failed on an 11-11 tie. This vote was a gift to cable and telephone companies, and a slap in the face of every Internet user and consumer.
It will not stand.
Read the rest by clicking here. I’ll admit I did not vote for Kerry, I think I would rethink that position today, and not just because of this, but that is a whole different blog.
