AT&T Study Determines Net Neutrality is Bad (Gasp!)

Sit down… this may come as a shock to you.

A new study from AT&T says that setting up the Internet on a tiered level would offer “significantly more” capacity than the system that’s being used now.

Coincidentally, it will offer “significantly more” capacity for AT&T to make more money. They didn’t say that in the study exactly - that’s my interpretation.

This study isn’t the only thing out there that questions net neutrality. The FTC issued a report last week concluding that regulators and legislators should proceed with caution. We just don’t know what the affects of net neutrality would be. I don’t want government regulations to hurt the net in the long run. Working with Hands Off the Internet, we must proceed with a “hands off” approach.

Fact is, the development of the internet technology was never funded by most of the companies who now claim their right to abandon net neutrality. Large portions of their business stem from the current state of the net.
