ISPs argue that the government should not interfere with the sanctity of free market forces. As for the $7 billion in grants that the Obama Administration is going to give them expand broadband service…well, that’s a patriotic duty they will undertake in order to help the U. S. be more competitive in a World economy. That’s different, see?

BTW, although the Wall Street Journal editorial staff does not seem to realize it, Net Neutrality will be essential to your own future. Without it, ISPs could charge more for your videos (and other content) than they might for content from their own websites or sites that pay them an extra fee.

Not only is metered pricing a Red Herring, it will relegate U.S. Internet service to second-class status and thereby damage our ability to compete against other countries in the future.
