Here’s an interesting paper by Ed Felten that makes some good points about net neutrality, such as that it’s really about control of innovation.

Nonetheless, he misses one of the main points. He recommends wait and see before any regulation, which ignores that the FCC already changed the rules 5 August 2005 when it reclassified DSL services as Information Services rather than Telecommunications Services, and adopted some unenforced principles instead.

In other words, wait and see is wait and let the telcos get away with having already abrogated net neutrality.
