network neutrality: a policy debate and for all Visa has been said and written about
net neutrality, and I can hardly bring anything new or innovative.
why I prefer to share some of the ideas I have been analyzing , and therefore make this post on a potpourri of links and content that I explained everything very well what net neutrality means.
is not my area of \u200b\u200bexpertise, but as a surfer and above all person, I have opinions, and this issue
is more important than many believe . If you really
ISP,
with the support of many governments "not very lucid or dominated by large companies," get away with it, not only are radically changing what is now the internet and how that we consume, but will affect many industries / companies that will be affected by the capricious and greedy ISP filters that assign to users when access to certain content, websites, companies and / or services . As an example of the thousands available, many gaming sites
almost certainly be banned in many places and the best access is very slow or limited.
In the case of gaming and is seen as some countries try to block access to certain websites, and even try to do so by blocking transactions destined for 7995 gaming operators. However, as we all know, until now there have always been ways to bypass these blockages in some other way (via proxies, non-coding, etc). However, if you end up with the net neutrality, ISPs get very hard the old tricks to bypass the censorship imposed, and not only that, but the mere fact that the network is not neutral will not all companies have the same opportunities to succeed, since some will be damaged with both end-user filter and stop the use and enjoyment as heretofore been doing. In other words, we can say that internet
no longer the only free space that was where whatever your business size could always be able to let you know and succeed , as was the case of youtube before being acquired by Google. Without a neutral network, monopolies and oligopolies rather increase their power and almost no one will breathe ...
censorship already exists in countries like China, but for a few reasons for protectionism towards Chinese companies over foreign, due among other factors governing the communist regime in the Asian giant, but
where the debate really started to end neutrality in the U.S., some years ago. was however in 2010 when this issue reached its peak of popularity in Spain due to the famous
Sinde Law.
The growth of Internet
being impressive, and even more
access mobile networks that are close to saturation, so that s
and require much investment in infrastructure to provide quality service to the increasingly growing demand. However, this does not justify
censor our websites / services favorite over his face, because among other factors, possible exclusive agreements that some ISP come to a dot-com or other. Telefonica
is as if we are to veto access to Google because it has finalized an exclusive commercial agreement with Bing, so that many users would be forced to forfeit the right to access the way they prefer or are accustomed to their web / favorite services. This is just one example of what would happen if you end the net neutrality as not only a
business issue, but many governments have seen the nature of the internet now poses a major threat to them, with the famous Wikileaks as the best example of this, and therefore are also involved the fight to end with free internet and the opportunities we all know.
graphically To better understand what they intend to launch operations once get away with free internet,
included the following image, where the different packages are accessible to the network:
I would also recommend reading the very good post
Jesus Encinar where
well exposed some of the consequences of not having a neutral network also include several links with quality content as the great
Mr. Cesar Alierta video , where exposed as Telefónica wants to make an even bigger monopoly, thanks to "own"
infrastructure (much of which is the state gave English prior to privatization ... and it seems that you forgot to Mr Alierta in this video ... no despercidio ) As we have seen, is a very long
discussion topic, it is almost impossible to summarize in a simple post for many referenced links and content that are made. I hope nevertheless to have contributed my two cents as
"activist" against a "neutral" who want to impose
few in collaboration with many governments that every day more like a puppet in the hands of a few companies .. . Finally,
say that in my opinion, internet and general use should be regulated, but much less in the way intended . It does not seem far-fetched the idea that if you want faster connection for streaming services such as the user has the option of paying more for the extra that you can enjoy more of your favorite movies or series.
Operators must provide a minimum service quality and speed, where not censorship, but maybe some specific packages where companies that require more speed or bandwidth pay more or where we offer users attractive but some packages where
censorship or blocking exist and if an open dialogue among all where there is room for internet continues its natural course with the consensus of all and not just a few adjectives that no market whatsoever ... Other Information Recommended
