Oh Woz, you're so confused. You want the Internet to stay unregulated, yet are in favour of Net Neutrality?

[guelo]

The pipes themselves must not be regulated based on the content. In other words, freedom for users, not necessarily for ISPs.

[wseymour]

What difference between end-users and ISPs means that one party may have freedom but the other may not?

[k-mcgrady]

The difference is that we give ISP's the use of our countries spectrum. Without that, they wouldn't have a business. So it's fair that we can prevent them from screwing us through regulation.

If we are talking wireless, then you might have a point, but you can always lay more wire.

[k-mcgrady]

True but it's easier said than done. The huge cost involved in laying more wire is a big barrier to entry. And I would guess there are limits to the amount of cable that can be laid.

What difference between government and individuals?

[spindritf]

Monopoly on violence.
