FCC Chief Clarifies His Statement On Comcast 38
netizenz writes "At a press conference yesterday, FCC Chairman Kevin Martin has clarified his earlier statements on Comcast. According to the CircleID post by Richard Bennett, he 'will not seek a fine against Comcast. Rather, he will simply impose some reporting requirements on them and order them to do what they've already started to do, phase out the current traffic management system in favor of an application-agnostic one. This is second story in a row where the AP have got the facts backwards. Hence, both sides may now officially claim victory.'"

As long as it is "application agnostic". Comcast or for that matter most large ISP's think the internet is theirs to do with what they want. Laws? phooey, we own it, we will decided who its used in our interest.
Never mind all our wires run on public right of ways.
this is truely getting out of hand.
