So far, much of the argument over "net neutrality" has been over whether service providers should be allowed to favor one application, destination or Internet service over another. This is Net neutrality at the application layer. But the real issue is the neutrality of the IP layer where routers treat alike bits from every type of application.

So, what happened to "my network, my rules"? Perhaps I'm not seeing the point here, but what on earth does a government has to do with the question wether or not a service provider implements QoS on his network? Thanks, -- Sabri ENOSUNSHINE when $SHE == gone
