Is Net Neutrality a Partisan Battle?


New PR pushes seem to indicate so....

Late last week, the net-neutrality debate took on a more partisan tone, as liberal groups such as Moveon joined the fight. The 527 group began circulating an e-mail to its members urging support of net-neutrality laws, preventing incumbents from degrading competing service traffic. 'Net Neutrality prevents AT&T from choosing which websites open most easily for you based on which site pays AT&T more,' the alert proclaimed.

Update: IP Democracy reports that the Telecom and Antitrust Task Force of the House Judiciary Committee is slated to hold a hearing tomorrow on net neutrality.
