[QUOTE="Dave70968, post: 3062603, member: 13624"] I still think the problem of interference with the "last mile" could be solved by the municipalities making neutrality a condition of the carriers' (monopoly) franchise agreements (as is done with incumbent telcos with regard to competitive telephony providers), while not affecting the [I]other[/I] half of the net neutrality argument--that some services (mostly streaming media providers, which are highly bandwidth-intensive) are taking up an inordinate share of the backbone and peering agreements between big carriers at the upper levels. They really [I]are[/I] getting a free/subsidized ride on their transfers that occur long before their stuff ever gets near the end users. [/QUOTE]
