Verizon and Google Offer Up Net Neutrality Truce 115
When it comes to net neutrality, can we get along? Google and Verizon, antagonists on the question yet partners in Droid, say yes. The two companies have even teamed up to send the FCC ideas on how to handle network management disputes. 'Google/Verizon say that the Internet should function as an "open platform." That means, to them, that "when a person accesses cyberspace, he or she should be able to connect with any other person that he or she wants to—and that other person should be able to receive his or her message," they write. The 'Net should operate as a place where no "central authority" can make rules that prescribe the possible, and where entrepreneurs and network providers are able to "innovate without permission."'"

This is a troll? Bullshit! It's an accurate, objective evaluation of the situation. Looks like there's a moderator running loose who doesn't know how the job's done. Anybody want to bet he's American and comes from a particular part of the political spectrum?
