"Fast Lanes" were an idea posed by the anti-ISP crowd and then when the big ISPs started to catch on to that, the anti-ISP latched onto that as the next evil.
They wanted paid peering and they got paid peering. NN didn't have any effect on that. The FCC specifically said they didn't understand how all that stuff works and didn't regulate it. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions Midwest Internet Exchange The Brothers WISP ----- Original Message ----- From: "Marco Coelho" <coelh...@gmail.com> To: "WISPA General List" <wireless@wispa.org> Sent: Saturday, December 16, 2017 11:17:04 AM Subject: Re: [WISPA] Network Neutrality talking points There is nothing wrong with prioritizing one type of service over another (VOIP vs FTP). It leads to a better quality of service for the end user. Where this was going sideways earlier was when the big ISP companies were going to charge Netflix and Hulu directly if they wanted priority on their backbones.

WISPA is not taking a proactive role in advocacy on this issue, and we do not recommend that you do. · The intent is to help you be prepared for media and public inquiries if they do come in. · If you receive a query about your company’s position on net neutrality, or WISPA’s position, we encourage you to refer it to us to handle. Please send it to: o Dale Curtis, WISPA Communications Support, d...@dalecurtiscommunications.com · If you do choose to answer a media or public query: o Please let us know, preferably in advance; and o Please stick to this script; going off script could create problems for you and your business. General Tips · Any statements you make must be 100% truthful and backed-up with facts; so please don’t say anything that is untrue or unsupportable with facts. · If you don’t know the answer to a question, just say so. A convenient way to say it is: “I don’t know about that , but what I do know is …” · Don’t bring up other issues. Talking Points · Let’s be clear: We support a free and open internet. o We don’t block, throttle, or prioritize any content. o We disclose our terms of service in plain English. o We support robust privacy protections for our customers. o Those are the core elements of “net neutrality,” and we support them. · We believe you can have a free and open internet without heavy-handed regulation and enforcement that is ill-suited for small providers. · What was wrong with the way the internet was regulated up until two years ago? It worked well then, and it will again. · FCC regulations designed to treat all internet providers like large monopoly utilities – with open-ended and vaguely worded requirements, all subject to bureaucratic whim – are taking resources away from investment in under-served areas and diverting them instead toward lawyers and compliance consultants. · When our compliance costs go up because of government action, we either have to reduce investment in our business or pass those costs on to our customers. _______________________________________________ Wireless mailing list Wireless@wispa.org http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless _______________________________________________ Wireless mailing list Wireless@wispa.org http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless </blockquote> </blockquote> <blockquote> _______________________________________________ Wireless mailing list Wireless@wispa.org http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless </blockquote> _______________________________________________ Wireless mailing list Wireless@wispa.org http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless </blockquote> -- Marco C.
