Net neutrality: a big issue

Posted by Jorge Bernal February 26, 2007

Well, I’m used to the term tech neutrality maybe because is one of the current open fights here in Spain, but not so much about net neutrality. Two very different concepts but similar consequences. The opposite of neutrality here would be control. Control by an oligopoly (in the best case) which kills diversity, so killing innovation and slowing progress. Not a good idea.

I’ve found a short documentary (11 min) about this topic, quite well explained. Also, the video is open source and AFAIK, all the material has been extracted from the net (I recognised several clips from youtube)

The site: Humanity Lobotomy. There you can watch the video in Quicktime or download in some other formats.

Update: sorry, but I couldn´t resist. This other explanation may not be so detailed, but it´s really funny. Brought to you by Ask a Ninja

apt-get install pizza

Well, not so easy but really close this time. I don’t remember how I got there, but I found a perl script to order pizza from the command line. Bad news is that only works for Domino’s in the US, but I bet it’s a matter of time. Envy is a great motivator (check out Bluetooth Remote for reference).
