Federal regulation is not going to overcome your problem of state cronyism and regulatory capture that creates high bars to potential competitors entering into the market.

Letting the Feebs get their dirty fingers into the pie will just add a whole new category of compliance costs, payola and cronyism.

I am not as concerened about the marketing aspects, I fear the selective editing as a means to control information

My biggest fear out of this ruling is that the internet will become like TV, with a network providing programming.

With the new ruling the ISP will be able to decide they do not want to run Freerepublic.com,and Drudgereport.com, access denied, but they will run democratunderground.com and dailyKoss.com.(for example)

you can try to say then Freerepublic will just find another ISP, not likely when the statist monopoly owns the infrastructure.

#1 socialist goal is absolute control of information, then #2 the absolute control of production and distribution of wealth, #3 the absolute control of life and death (obamacare)
