If you like choice and performance when it comes to your Internet access, or you just like to support the little-guy… please sneak out early for lunch on Tuesday and join myself and many others on Parliament Hill to rally for net-neutrality.
Don’t know what Net Neutrality is? Think double-dipping by telcos wanting to charge extra for access to Google or Facebook… or making them load slower or after showing you ads. Notice how your VPN connection to the office got slower recently? That’s thanks to Bell’s new DPI from Ellacoya/Arbor. Your BitTorrenting on Rogers just not moving at full speed, even though it’s a legitimate download? Enjoy their “bandwidth resource management”.
And that’s just the beginning. The CRTC doesn’t appear to get it, so come help us make sure the message is heard.
