Re: Engineer vs Agenda

Perception is reality. Facts don't really mean much.

There are more rights than wrongs on both sides of the debate. Net Neutrality has turned so religious and agenda based that engineering, facts and data mean very little. It is all how the message is spun and which multi-billion dollar business (content companies, ISPs, broadband etc) gets ahead of the cost curve.

Re: Engineer vs Agenda

So far today, your inputs have been rather fact free yet I'm the one with the "agenda" naming RFCs and explaining why things are the way that they are and specifically how to move forward.

I'm also offering the fact that it isn't easy and perhaps isn't even practical, but that the right thing to do is to fix it at the standards level before arbitrarily unleashing it on the Internet.

You can call Network Neutrality a religion, but it is no more a religion than Freedom of the Press, is it?
