Net Nuetrality - Save the Internet

This is a great mashup video spot about Net nuetrality.  I was turned onto this by Hans.  Check out recent news items regarding Net Nuetrality.  Read an in-depth article By Edward Felton on the Nuts and Bolts of Net Neutrality (pdf).

About Network Neutrality
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

(also "net neutrality," and, more rarely, "internet neutrality") is a principle of computer networks design. It is variously defined in a number of similar/related ways:
  1. The satisfaction of all network application needs fairly. Any particular internet host, protocol or application should not receive preferential treatment, except to ensure correct operation of the network or protocol. A carrier's network that disfavors certain websites, protocols like Voip or multimedia services, for example, would be non-neutral.
  2. Alternately, permitting the networking of all non-harmful devices, with open access carriage of packets.
  3. Regulations that would attempt to legislate carriers to enforce neutrality on their networks. Anti-network neutrality regulations would enable a tiered internet.
