Sorry to burst your bubble, but if i am willing to pay more to get more then I
should those people who pay for a residential account shouldn't get business
class or enterprise services. I once used Comcast, but had their Gold Services
Contract allowing me to run my own servers on my connection, and of course that
came with a heavier price tag as well. It was like 10 to 20 bucks more for
that. I now have Verizon FiOS which delivers me 35Megabits up and down which a
residential person can get for a fraction of the cost, but i have a block of 5
static IP's and unlimited bandwidth and data transfers not to mention I can run
my own servers such as DNS, E-Mail, HTTP, HTTPS, and what have you. I pay 140
bucks a month for that plan.
So in my opinion net neutrality is a complete joke.
Your average joe doesn't need to be running servers, and if you want business
class services and abilities then pay for it. Bandwidth costs money. You
can't
have your cake and eat it too.
Thanks,
Daniel Reinhardt
