"As far as any control over the Internet, it is an interesting choice. Do you want the government telling ISPs they can't do certain things, or do you want to be your ISP's bitch just because they have a monopoly on the last-mile?"

This does seem like the dynamic at play here. I have to say however, that I fear the government, not AT&T.

My problem is that I like my Internet just the way it is. So far it has been the ISPs talking about changing things and the government talking about keeping it the same.

And don't forget, it's not like the government hasn't been involved in the Internet since the beginning.
