Cory Doctorow theguardian.com, Monday 28 April 2014 00.00 BST "An ISP should give users the bits they ask for, as quickly as it can, and not deliberately slow down the data The Federal Communications Commission, America's telcoms regulator, has formulated a plan to allow internet service providers (ISPs) to charge companies for the right to "premium" access to its customers. This is the worst internet policy news imaginable. It should strike terror into the heart of anyone who cares about fairness, politics, the widening gap between the rich and the poor, fair trade, entrepreneurship, or innovation. The FCC now stands as the world's foremost symbol for "regulatory capture," and its chairman - a former cable executive lobbyist - is the poster child for an unhealthy relationship between industry and its regulators. What's at stake is "network neutrality," which is the simple principle that your ISP should give you the bits you ask for, as quickly as it can, and not deliberately slow down the data you're looking for. ... "

Doctorow's intro in his newsletter: "My latest Guardian column, "Internet service providers charging for premium access hold us all to ransom," explains what's at stake now that the FCC is prepared to let ISPs charge services for "premium" access to its subscribers. It's pretty much the worst Internet policy imaginable, an anti-innovation, anti-democratic, anti-justice hand-grenade lobbed by telcos who shout "free market" while they are the beneficiaries of the most extreme industrial government handouts imaginable."
