Interesting story.

I think I read some time ago that US ISP's were petitioning for permission to "prioritize" internet traffic, so they could then charge business website owners an additional fee for the privilege of being assigned a higher priority. I can see why this would be of concern to many consumers and small business owners.

yeah, news like this really show how US is slowly becoming what the old US used to fight with and used to stand against... So sad
