Sen. Franken: Stop the Corporate Takeover of the Media

GeeSussFreeK says...

Each packet is already treated differently on the internet and people haven't had a problem with it. For instance, I have a premium membership at file planet. As such, I don't wait in lines, and have faster service on the whole. AOL, and Google treat individual users to different ad experiences based on their profile. These types of explicit and implicit relationships make the internet the crazy mashup that it is, it is what makes it work. There might be a market for people who want to pay extra to have their traffic prioritized. When you are talking about a finite thing, that is worth paying for. For example, if someone on the bogged down AT&T network wanted to pay extra to have a bigger piece of the network pie, companies should be allowed to offer such things.

The REAL problem is that new network infrastructure isn't allowed to be installed by anyone other than explicit government enforced companies. As such, the network gets more and more crowed and the cable companies can charge people for these "deluxe rate plans" and not have to keep their services competitive. This has only changed small amounts in the era of high speed; once cable and DLS started to offer similar rates and speeds both sides tried to get the leg up. But in reality, they are still dealing with huge areas of influence against outsiders making it even more competitive. If Comcast becomes as data unfriendly as AOL did in its hayday, people have no choice due to decades of government control.

In reality, you don't want the government telling people what they can do with their pipes, the end result is worse than if you just opened up the markets to outsiders wanting to string up new services. It is no small stretch of the imagination to presume if the government starts getting in the business of telling ISPs what they can or can't transmit with priority, it will lead to what they can transmit at all. Like if they decided to crack down on cyber bulling, a very hot political subject right now, the FCC could demand that ISPs can no longer deal traffic to sights that have anonymous posting. That would be letter of law now instead of just one punk ISP trying to pull one over on consumers. The internet will remain more free the more you keep the FCC out of it, just look at their track record. How many small independent radio broadcasts companies exist? Well, it has gone form about 70% before the FCC to about 5% now, and less than 1% for television. If you want huge media corporations taking over the internet, then you want the FCC involved in the regulation of the internet.

Ask Howard Stern or George Carlin about the FCC and how open they are.

Video Toaster - computer magic anno 1990

videosiftbannedme says...

Holy shit, I haven't seen that screen in a LOOOOOOONG time. We had an Amiga 3000 with a Video Toaster, Lightwave, DTV and Deluxe Paint III. Sadly, our video production business never got off the ground, but it did get me into a career doing computers. Thanks mom!

NiN- And All That Could Have Been...

kceaton1 says...

Thought I would post that this song's partner is The Day The World Went Away. That song is the parent of the one I have posted, if you want to listen to them back to back.

*edit- "The Day The Earth Went Away" has a few versions out, the one in the link isn't the one you will find in the "Still" album, but the meaning is just the same (it's slower, and bit more quiet, and leads out with rain as the other begins with it., etc...). You can also look for the deluxe edition "And All That Could Have Been" album/dvd (one cd, one dvd with the fragility tour-live, I believe).
