Comment on US court rules against FCC on net neutralityparent

Comments

Small businesses are the ones most likely to benefit from preventing net neutrality -- via an acquisition by a content provider like Comcast or Verizon or AOL, etc.

It is the companies with > 30% market share that stand to lose, since ISPs would be able to pick winners and fragment the market further. This is why Google supports net neutrality.

If I write on my blog about Comcast doing something bad, what is stopping Comcast from simply blocking all connections to my blog?

Further - what is preventing them from changing the html and removing their name from whatever they serve?

Nothing, yet they don't do that. I think you proved my point.

Just like MSNBC didn't block Wikileaks when Wikileaks made their parent company, GE, look bad.

Oh wait, they did do that.

How is that relevant to net neutrality?

What if GE was an ISP and not just a search engine?
