Net neutrality: one Spartan takes on Congress

3. Are you sure it was this video that changed their minds and not the millions of dollars Microsoft/Google/Yahoo! threw into lobbyists that did the trick?

Hmmm. Changed who's minds? No doubt MS, Google and other powerful corporations are for net neutrality, but the net neutrality bill was dropped, so I am not sure what "trick" you are referring to. By far, the bigger lobbying effort is on the part of the telcomms. If this country didn't have such a stupid aversion to regulation, we might occcassionally understand that it is necessary to curb the more greedy excesses of what is erroneously called "the free market." Free like what? Aerospace? Telecommunications? The Gov't already is working hard regulating in favor of corporate greed, why not let it regulate a little in the other direction for once?
