Net neutrality is dead, but it probably doesn’t matter

I don't think he understands what nn means.without nn your isp can simply not connect you to say. A competitor of Netflix. Thus there can only ever be one Netflix. Thats a huge problem in a market where I only have one choice in an isp.

Is it me or does this hardly make eny sense?

Bufferbloat has no effect on the available bandwidth in a completly switched network. (It might confuse protocols resulting in bad utilization, but has little to do with net neutrality.)

If ISPs limit the bandwidth available to each content provider, then bufferbloat does not enter into the picture. (Okay, depending on how the limiting is done, it might cause extra bufferbloat.)

Fixing bufferbloat doesn't solve the fact that ISPs have lots of local monopolies and duopolies. If there's a sudden drop in bandwidth demand, there's nothing to keep an ISP from decreasing supply to create demand for a fast lane.

Complaining about bufferbloat is a red herring. It doesn't matter if it's fixed if Netflix is trying to push 40 Gbps of traffic to a set of customers across some ISP's 10 Gbps interconnect.

This is the RED BUTTON. Fight back.

The view that net neutrality is dead is just Americentrism.
