Larry Downes VS Free Press
I just had my first article published on Tucker Carlson and Derek Hunters new site venture The Daily Caller. The launch was yesterday and I think it has gone swimmingly. The article is on a piece that Timothy Karr, the guy who runs savetheinternet.com a Free Press site, wrote that was just raunchy. Not in sort of a back alley, red light district sense, but from the unscrupulous, "you've got to be kidding me" sense. The piece was written to try and brush off some reporting Larry Downes had produced based on some policy perspective he had at CES, but instead ...

Gaming traffic is very, very small. ...

FCC & Net Neutrality: Part 2
As with Part 1, my comments in bold. At a Crossroads Notwithstanding its unparalleled record of success, today the free and open Internet faces emerging and substantial challenges. We?ve already seen some clear examples of deviations from the Internet?s historic openness. We have witnessed certain broadband providers unilaterally block access to VoIP applications (phone calls delivered over data networks) and implement technical measures that degrade the performance of peer-to-peer software distributing lawful content. We have even seen at least one service provider deny users access to political content. And as many members of the Internet community and key Congressional leaders have noted, ...
