Net-Neutrality Overruled! A Win for Everyone!

Why this is good for everyone?

  1. Market Reality
    1. Service Providers are public companies
    2. Broadband is not classified as a "common carrier"
      1. If it was it wouldn't have been deployed
    3. Google, et al, get a free ride and they generate tons of cashs
      1. No one seems to complain about this.
  2. It is fair to the small company!
    1. No difference than numerous other industries
      1. Not everyone can afford to, or wants to, buy a Superbowl ad.
        1. No outrage here?
    2. This will force small companies and start-ups to innovate harder
      1. The consumer will benefit even more.
        1. FCC is all about protecting the US consumer
  3. Service providers will have the incentive to invest in last mile bandwidth
    1. They will get a fair return on their investment
    2. Consumers will benefit again
      1. So will Google
  4. Consumers will benefit
    1. More bandwidth
    2. Better services
  5. Yet, FCC must TRUST but VERIFY
    1. FCC needs to ensure policies and "tariffs" are fair, equitable and non-discriminatory
