Net Neutrality is pure double speak.

We have already witnessed the initial occurances of net filtering by the search engines. First with Google, now with Yahoo and Altavista (to a lesser degree).

Many times recently I have had the “you cannot go there from here” type response from a benign search.

On top of that I have already experienced e-mails frozen because of content at the connection of my local ISP to Yahoo. And it was a simple screen capture of a Technorati search. Nothing vulgar, nothing sensitive, nothing illegal. But none the less it happened.

Welcome to the Brave New World.

Funny you should mention that because my ISP seems to have all of a sudden stopped sending me my "Rush in a Hurry Show Notes."
