I can’t speak to the MI bill, but I have been following the national debate in my work with the Hands Off the Internet coalition and the federal regulations would prohibit the prioritization of VOIP, video, and gaming packets over a spam email packet. We are already seeing problems with VOIP calls being dropped and poor reception due to overcrowded network and net legislation regulating the internet in the name of net neutrality certainly wouldn’t resolve this problem.

One thing I can’t help but think is that the non-stop ads I see on TV these days talking about how “net neutrality is designed to stuff more cash in those rich Silicon Valley pockets” are just evidence that Comcast and Verizon learned how to do advertising by watching political campaign ads.
