Here’s a great opinion piece on Internet regulation from City Journal by Brian C. Anderson:
Net neutrality would swiftly become a bureaucratic nightmare. “Neutrality regulation might as well have been labeled the ‘Telecom Lawyer & Lobbyist Full Employment Act of 2006’ because it would generate mountains of regulation and litigation in coming years,” says Theirer. “You [...]
CNet’s Daniel Terdiman tried to get inside Google’s new complex in Oregon, and was turned away. See what Ron Wyden’s defending.
UPDATE: One application that’s going to run in this hideaway is Google Checkout. See Donna Bogatin for discussion of Google’s impact on business relationships on the Web. She asks the right question:
Is Google a benevolent [...]
Back on the old Omphalos blog, my most controversial entry was an attack on Attachment Parenting, and one of the most hostile critics was a lady named Dawn Ratliff. Following a link in the referral log, this is what’s on the web site Dawn gave back in 2002, apparently now an ex-husband, Keith Ratliff:

Here’s a news round-up from Chris Abraham:
I am very happy that the so-called “net neutrality” — which is very 1984 doublespeak — died in the Senate today. God bless America! Via San Francisco Chronicle, The Washington Post, ZDNet, Reuters, Wired News.

Our heroes are unfortunately blind to the larger context that surrounds their quest for power.
The Internet’s in [...]
Mike at Techdirt asks the question of the day: Why Is There So Little Honesty In The Net Neutrality Debate?
Looking the array of interests assembled under the neutrality banner, it’s not surprising:
A. The end-to-end cargo cult, a group of people who understand virtually nothing about how the Internet is put together, but who nevertheless make [...]
I’d like to draw your attention to a very disturbing video. Sir Tim Berners-Lee, inventor of the World-Wide Web of Computer Internetting, has apparently been captured by terrorists. I say this because the Net Neutrality video clip (proprietary format only, Linux need not apply) on his MIT blog looks like one of those “captured soldier [...]
The Chicago Tribune understands the agenda of the Google-Blog coalition promoting these crazy new Internet QoS regulations called “net neutrality”:
An apt comparison: If lawmakers had forced a uniform price requirement on mail delivery, the U.S. Postal Service, FedEx, DHL and UPS would have been barred from charging a premium for faster delivery. Most likely, FedEx [...]
