American Prospect Online - High Definition

American Prospect Online - High Definition:

"As Congress begins its new session, there has been a flurry of activity on Capitol Hill to protect the open nature of the internet. On Tuesday, Senators Byron Dorgan and Olympia Snowe re-introduced a bill from last session that bans internet providers from charging certain sites for faster access -- or blocking other sites entirely. The same day, Representative Edward Markey was elected chairman of the House subcommittee that oversees the internet and vowed to hold hearings on the subject, known as net neutrality."

Comment: I hope my Congressman, Al Wynn, will get on board and support net neutrality this time! JAD
