The EU is attempting to give governments the power to do a lot more than just
guaranteeing neutrality of the telecoms, even to the point of levying
different taxes for different content transmitted over the Internet, or
censorship controls, or what have you. Instead, our crooked Chairman is
hell-bent to give private local monopolies **those very same powers**. "New
business models," is his lame excuse.
Except that is NOT TRUE. Nothing has changed with respect to the fundamental
tenets of Net Neutrality; the only change is that enforcement is going back to
the agency that was in charge for decades before the Obama administration tried
to disadvantage ISPs relative to the Internet Edge Providers, who ARE violating
the basic tenets of Net Neutrality.
