I have had a netflix caching server for several years.  It was free.  Does not 
add to my backbone cost as it fills itself during the off hours.

IMO, the true cost of a service like Netflix is more than the monthly rate that 
they bill their customers. As ISPs, we just have to absorb that cost or raise 
prices to compensate, doesn't help with the big bad ISP perception.

  A lot of people wanted to do that back in the day. I had no idea why.

  What I'm thinking here... don't charge the end users. Get good IP traffic 
accounting and charge the upstream content providers for carrying THEIR sourced 
traffic. Don't penalize the end users. ;-)

    One of our tech support guys asked me yesterday if we're going to start 
charging for access to Facebook, Netflix, etc. I was just like, dude, 
seriously? Yeah, cuz that will surely get us customers. He said, but now we 
can, so why wouldn't we? I said, but did we before NN? And then I realized he 
was just trying to annoy me. Same shit the media is doing. FUD dbag tactics. 
IT'S A TRAP!

      Exactly.  I literally see people suggesting that ISP's will charge for 
access to Facebook or charge for access to Netflix.  Not. Going. To. Happen.

        Yeah, true, there were ways to legally do it before if you really 
wanted to. Bbut more to the point, nobody is going to do something like that 
anyway, because there's no way that it would be worth the customer backlash 
they'd have to deal with.


        Nah, nobody is going to have the sense to feel silly about it... 
they'll just keep whining for awhile, and then forget about it. Or else, 
they'll find something that's completely unrelated that they don't like and 
blame it on the lack of NN.

          You would have to justify that as "reasonable network management".  
They defined reasonable network management as being driven by technical reasons 
rather than business reasons (paraphrased).  Not disagreeing with you, just 
clarifying.

          The bigger loophole I saw was that transit providers were excluded 
from all the rules.
          Put an AS in between you and your upstream who just does filtering 
for you.  They're a transit provider so they have no NN rules.

          It was very frustrating to witness all the crazy theories about what 
would happen.  I wonder if anyone will have the sense to feel silly about 
pontificating on Facebook when absolutely nothing changes.

            NN did not disallow you to block facebook, just have to disclose 
it.  J  So it really did’ent do anything.

              Apparently now we ISPs can lawfully block individual sites and 
will do so with impunity.



              These people with these petty ideas I dont think understand how 
poorly granularity scales.
