A "fast lane" is not neutral. This is a tipping point that will dramatically effect the future. BTW all members of the FCC serve (or unserve) at the pleasure of the POTUS.
My hypothesis is that we'll move to a distributed national mesh network with each network provider receiving a share based on usage opposed to direct contracts with specific providers (i.e. Verizon, Comcast, etc)
You know things have gone irretrievably to shit when fellow AOL employees write public articles on what a douche you are. Hopefully none of us will deteriorate to this point (although I think it's possible for me to get there;-).
