I was out one night having a beer, Time Warner (my ISP at the time, this is one reason they are no longer) called me to ask to sign up for thier VOIP. Being slightly intoxicated (learned from this do not voluntarily give information) they asked to sign up for their VOIP. I (regretfully) said your competitors have a better deal, they replied "Vonage" again regretfully I answered "YES". Vonage never worked again with quality resulting in my discontinuance of the cheaper/better experience i had received! Net Neutrality is an important aspect of innovation! A start up needs to be able to compete openly without the HUGE corporations having the ability to virtually squash a competitor in the name of profit!
