Keep Your Hands Off My Internet

There has been a lot of talk lately about the federal government wanting to get involved in the regulation (of some sort) of the internet. Net neutrality is a discussion you may have heard about. I wanted to sit down and take a look at what net neutrality is about and what it could mean if congress found a way to put the internet under the control of the FCC.

What does this mean for you? Probably not good at all. The fact of the matter is simply that where there is substantial money involved, government regulation is never far behind. It is funny that the only ones in favor of government regulation of the internet are the big corporations. What good what it do you the average consumer? I'll tell you.

I'll also tell you just what the FCC was all about and how it could tie in to what the internet is or what some members of congress want it to be.
