Update: Vote on Telecom bill and network neutrality delayed

Current | Technology | Net Neutrality

tim berners-lee.jpgThis morning we told you that the Senate Commerce Committee was preparing to vote on a Internet overhaul bill and an watered down amendment intended to protect network neutrality. Reuters is reporting that the committee adjourned today without a vote and will revisit the contentious issue on Tuesday.

In the meantime, Sir Tim Berners-Lee, the inventor of the Internet (sorry Al Gore) has posted a video on his website explaining why he sees the end of network neutrality as it stands now destroying his baby. Clicking here will open the video in Real Player. Clicking here will let you read the text, Net Neutrality: This is Serious.
