Mozilla Foundation proposed a weak halfhearted network neutrality

lundi 12 mai 2014 à 14:00

The Mozilla Foundation proposed a weak halfhearted network neutrality: to declare ISPs' connections to servers a common carrier but not the connections with users (the ISPs' customers).

The intended result of this is to block one specific abuse -- discrimination by ISPs among web servers -- without blocking other abuses directly against internet users. For instance, ISPs would still be allowed to punish their customers at the request of the copyright industry.

No thanks, Mozilla Foundation.
