Black State Legislators widen Digital Divide

April 18, 2007 By: The Good Doctor Category: open source

How many of you have seen this?

I take a fairly aggressive stance on Net neutrality. I believe that broadband networks should be free of restrictions on both equipment and nodes of communication. If indeed this neutrality would diminish innovation…then ok. I don’t think is what will happen, but I am ok with it if it does. Without net neutrality I’d argue that what passes for a digital divide would increase.

Now the article above notes that black state legislators across the country are beginning to move against net neutrality. But what the article does not say is that many of these same legislators are being paid off financially supported for doing so.

Gotta love it.
