If we really want to retain the right to prioritize, go rattle the chain of the RIAA. Put the bug in their ear that this will give more speed to the torrents. They have a lobby group that can smack this down.
Bob- -----Original Message----- From: wireless-boun...@wispa.org [mailto:wireless-boun...@wispa.org] On Behalf Of Clint Ricker Sent: Thursday, September 24, 2009 7:27 AM To: WISPA General List Subject: Re: [WISPA] The Net Neutrality speech we've all been waiting for Where is everyone getting that you are allowed to prioritize anything? The speech details three points along the subject of prioritization. The Julius Genachowski's recent speech specifically said "no prioritization"--refer to section 5. - "This means they cannot block or degrade lawful traffic over their networks" (blocking / deprioritizing) - "or pick winners by favoring some content or applications over others in the connection to subscribers' homes" (prioritizing) - "During periods of network congestion, for example, it may be appropriate for providers to ensure that very heavy users do not crowd out everyone else" (block / degrade on a per-user basis, rather than per-application?) - Doesn't apply to managed services (I believe that he's referring to metro Ethernet with QOS) - "open Internet principles apply only to lawful content, services and applications -- not to activities like unlawful distribution of copyrighted works, which has serious economic consequences." (As I said in my Senate confirmation hearing, open Internet principles apply only to lawful content, services and applications -- not to activities like unlawful distribution of copyrighted works, which has serious economic consequences.) Where has any statement been made regarding prioritization being ok?
