AUPs are a practical way to manage traffic and maximize revenues. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Further, Network BC acknowledges that &#8220;Aggressive traffic shapers must continue to constrain traffic flows where their networks are not capable of handling increasing traffic demands.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>These two points &#8211; managing limited network facilities through traffic shaping and imposing AUPs &#8211; are hardly an unqualified endorsement of net neutrality principles.<\/p>\n<p>Acceptable use policies imply that there are also unacceptable uses. How does one reconcile AUPs with the open and accessible network that Vinton Cerf describes as inviting and inducing creativity and innovation.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, one might argue that deep packet inspection is simply a technology that polices AUPs without blocking traffic. As such, with a careful read of the filing, one might not conclude that Network BC&#8217;s submission voices support for the same type of net neutrality as advocated by others.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: rgb(51, 204, 0);font-size:78%;\">Technorati Tags:<br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/Network+BC\" rel=\"tag\">Network BC<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/CRTC\" rel=\"tag\">CRTC<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/network+management\" rel=\"tag\">network management<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I saw a headline that reads &#8220;B.C.
