“network neutrality,” the two-year-old experiment
The internet has always been neutral. We've only recently been forced to defend neutrality. What's new is the attacks on it.
Oh Vino, don't know what came over me
I wrote with such haste I just couldn't see

Next week on "This Australian Life":
> The laws of Australia prevail in Australia, I can assure you of that,
And then: "The laws of nature are commendable, but here in Australia we just passed a law that all mammals must, henceforth, follow the Kangaroo's lead and include pouches on all newborn animals. Marsupials drive Australia's tourist economy, and this new measure will promote tourism and lead to rising social welfare across all walks of Australian life, human or otherwise."
Hypocrisy is An Accepted Tactic
I feel Mike's discouragement at the blatant hypocrisy. And it is totally worth pointing out. However, I don't share is apparent surprise. Hypocrisy seems to be the most accepted political tactic these days. Most of politics to me seems to be *based* on hypocrisy. It's the best way to keep our deep them-vs.-us divisions in place.
The real problem is how ready people are to accept this hypocrisy when it is in their favor. I'm not outraged at the hypocrisy. I'm outraged at the lack of bipartisan outrage over any hypocrisy.
There's so many layers to this onion. No wonder I'm always crying.
