Here, please allow me to translate.

When I use the word “sexy” and you use the word “sexy” it does NOT guarantee that we are talking about the same thing!

When technical geeks, such as myself (and you - looking are your posts) say “net neutrality” we understand that in a TECHNICAL definition, it means free flow of packets over all networks.

However, when it comes to liberals, just as they do so often, they have co-opted the phrase and are using it to mean “equal access to counter points-of-view,” which makes the net “neutral.” One of the very people that have espoused “net neutrality” said that requiring opposing views of ideas on ALL websites would be a very good implementation of “net neutrality.”

When I read the Civil Rights Laws of 1964, no where do I see “affirmative action” and quotas listed; however, it was these very laws which created these as “unintended(?) consequences” and so too will “net neutrality!”
