Net Neutrality

[Paul McNary]

Comcast has already changed it's term of service so that nothing really 
changes for them except
for some additional reporting that will have minimal impact on their 
resources. However for
a small WISP like we are, the resources to report for us is probably 2 
employees full time.
That's more employees than we have now just for Net Neutrality reporting 
and ComCast can
still play the same game they do now if they properly word it and 
disclose in their terms of service.
Terms of service can be changed daily and posted to a web site. The the 
lawyers already on staff
deal with it. A single Net Neutrality case and we successfully defend, 
still costs between $30-50000,
in legal fees and can not be collected from the losing party.

The crap in in the details not the bullet points.
