Internet Access
Say No ... to traffic Priority!
After week on going over the free internet access Google /Verison proposal. Finally the joint endorsement of exempting wireless services from net neutrality is a significant victory for cellular broadband providers such as Verizon, which have said that excessive regulation of those services would stifle their investments.
What could be really behind of the proposal is profit. Cellular Internet access is becoming an increasingly important profit center for telecommunications companies as more consumers adopt mobile Web tools such as smart phones like the iPhone and phones based on Google's Android software
Traffic priority could be easily convert to pay for more access and become a nightmare for internet user it the common use of the traffic priority charges spread out to the world.
Some consumer advocates slammed the proposal, saying it could result in the creation of private, closed broadband networks akin to cable TV systems, as opposed to today's open Internet in which anyone can create a website or online service.
