The net as it is wins - for now
Net Neutrality went down, and I for one am glad to see that:
A U.S. Senate panel narrowly rejected strict Net neutrality rules on Wednesday, dealing a grave setback to companies like eBay, Google and Amazon.com that had made enacting them a top political priority this year.
For those of you who think this is a bad thing - Recall the FCC's actions after the Superbowl "wardrobe malfunction". If you think the US government is going to lay down neutrality rules and then keep a hands off attitude beyond that, you probably also think you'll find a pony under every large pile of manure...

Telephones are regulated

Telephones are regulated also aren't they? The lines I mean. But you aren't limited in what you can say over the telephone or on a conference call.
