The end of net neutrality?

RaiDK's Photo RaiDK 05 Aug 2010

This just caught my eye now: Google and Verizon sign net neutrality agreement

If this is true then wow, it's finally happened. Ironic that the first move would come from Google, who would be the last people you'd expect to pull a move like this.

Not good, folks.

Update: Phew... we think. Google's Public Policy Twitter account just belted out a denial of these claims, straight-up saying that the New York Times "is wrong." Here's the full tweet, which certainly makes us feel a bit more at ease. For now. "@NYTimes is wrong. We've not had any convos with VZN about paying for carriage of our traffic. We remain committed to an open internet."


Metaphorical wipe-sweat-off-the-brow.
