Re: Conversely

Naturally, it is an exaggerated proportion, but the similarity is intact.

Re: Conversely

Unintentional and limited is not a smaller proportion of intentional and broad. These are not cases of network neutrality violations, they are someone accidentally screwing up!

Re: Conversely

You're missing the comparison. I'm not saying these are net neutrality violations, but rather the effect is--or could be--similar. The, "Oh, if a few packets get dropped, that isn't our problem. That website could upgrade to our AwesomeService Plus™ routing to gaurantee their traffic." is the comparison to which I was referring.

No it isn't

What you are talking about is like saying that no internet connection and a reduced speed are the same thing when they clearly are not.

Re: Conversely

What happens when too many packets drop, "get lost", or are routed horribly?

Re: Conversely

When Akimai experiences a hardware failure, all kinds of net content have the potential to go "missing".

Screwups are along the same line.

Cox offered a security app that had blacklisted craigslist.

Cox is still neutral regarding craigslist. The security app is not.

Many, many of the ads on Craigslist, really aren't family friendly. I don't blame the app.

This one's on the end user, as long as Cox advises their users that uninstalling restores connectivity.
