\"NY<\/a>Perhaps it was only in the interest of journalistic simplicity, but The New York Times seems to have confused the web with the internet. In the NYTimes editorial<\/a>, entitled Democracy and the Web<\/span>, the Times seems to think that net neutrality is all about making sure that all websites load just as fast in your browser – in the interests of democratic access.<\/p>\n

There is no mention of different applications being treated with different priority (such as voice or tele-medicine competing with file downloading). All bits are the same in the eyes of the Times, because in its simplified view of the world, the internet apparently equals web-browsing. And we can’t allow those greedy ISPs to put their selfish financial interests ahead of democratic access to MLB.com<\/a>, apple pie recipes<\/a>, and the American Way<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Mark Evans has a provocatively titled post<\/a>, “The Web As We Know It is Dying.” The article questions the CRTC examining new media content in an upcoming proceeding: <\/p>\n

I can\u2019t wait to see government regulation of the Internet if, in fact, it is possible to regulate it. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

On the other hand, his article seems to endorse CAIP’s request that the regulator does intervene and impose some regulations on internet access. Which is it?<\/p>\n

He also suggests that those evil ISPs will distort the former free-wheeling internet because of their selfish money grabbing ways. <\/p>\n

You notice that broadband carriers and cablecos don\u2019t break out the profitability of their high-speed units? Probably because they\u2019re very, very profitable. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Is the business really so embarrassingly profitable?<\/p>\n

Net Neutrality will be the subject of a special panel on Wednesday morning, June 18 at The 2008 Canadian Telecom Summit<\/span><\/a>. Register soon. Prices go up June 1.<\/p>\n
