RE: Where does Steem stand on Net Neutrality?
More or less I agree. It's not that I necessarily trust the big internet providers, but rather my sense of things is that Net Neutrality is more about certain politicians and bureaucrats trying to grab for more power in the guise of protecting us. I figure that if the big internet providers blatantly abuse their power, at least the market allows for new companies and disruptive technologies to allow for working around it. Abuse by the gov't is usually much harder to work around or reverse, and perversely makes it more likely those giant companies carry out 'regulatory capture' of the industry.
I feel centralization of power is what we most want to try to avoid, and it seems to me that replacing that future potential for partial centralization of power by the big internet providers with a definite and stronger centralization of power under the government is a recipe for more abuse. At least that seems to be the usual pattern...
