It is amazing how media outlets are portaying assent or dissent depending on their perspective. On friday, I was listening to the bbc's fictionalization of internet governance in the future. It was fairly enlightening as to the british government perspective, if not really the BT's. The bbc podcast was in their 'go digital' series i think.

Ha. It's great that "a consensus of telecom professionals and lobbyists have reached consensus" on this issue, as the reporter says. (I wonder why telecom professionals from Skype weren't invited?) Others have not reached a consensus. I went to a different panel on net neutrality in Washington D.C. a few days after the one chronicled in Jeremy's forward. It was:
Network Neutrality vs. Network Diversity: The Debate Between Open and Proprietary Broadband Architectures http://www.tprc.org/TPRC05/Sat200Sess05.htm#NetNeutral
There was no sign of agreement there.
