The significant regulatory impact of reclassifying broadband services is not something that should be taken lightly and should not be done without additional direction from Congress.

If net neutrality goes away, it will fundamentally change everything about the Internet.

Everyone knows that the broadband era will breed a new generation of online services, but this is only half of the story. Like any innovation, broadband will inflict major changes on its environment. It will destroy, once and for all, the egalitarian vision of the Internet.

Unfortunately, changing forms of Internet communication are quickly outpacing laws and technology designed to allow for the lawful intercept of communication content.

The Internet is a telephone system that's gotten uppity.

Any 'network neutrality' rule should be designed to forbid phone or cable companies from controlling the Internet.

As each year and debate passes, more broadband companies will start to see that their future lies not in restricting an open Internet but in betting on it.

The Internet is not nearly as fail-safe as the phone system.

I am still cautiously hopeful about the potential of the Internet. But it seems that the greatest revolution in communication has been hijacked by commercial values.
