> electricity company literally cannot figure out what brand of appliance you're using That's a technological limitation; I know various companies that have half-working solutions for discriminating what kind of appliance you're using from a smart meter, based on its consumption profile and noise profile. Nobody's yet attempted plug-level DRM but it's not technologically impossible ... Really what America needs is "local loop unbundling" in addition to net neutrality. But we're in the realms of what's politically achievable. |

If we have local loop unbundling, NN will come on the backs of meaningful competition it would ensue (as opposed to Pai competition).
