Speaking of net neutrality...

Posted by Laura on June 08, 2006 at 09:26 AM in General , Government Relations | Permalink

Laura3_4 The recent email about net neutrality from Meg (eBay's CEO Meg Whitman, to be precise) prompted a lot of good discussion among our members.   In reading some of the posts in eBay's Community forums, it's clear that this is a new subject for a lot of people.  Not surprisingly, there are also members who are already well-educated on this topic and who are helping others on eBay understand the issues at hand better, which is great.

This week, eBay member slavebay shared a video on the Comics board on net neutrality.  It's about 6-1/2 minutes and offers a very quick course on the case for net neutrality that I recommend as a "net neutrality 101" lesson.  Watch The Death of the Internet?  posted on YouTube.com earlier this month by COAnews.

Among all the questions, answers, and debate, I've also seen comments from people who are already taking action to make their voice heard by sending emails/letters to congress....that's fantastic...let's keep those emails coming!

And by the way, if you're going to eBay Live!, don't forget to stop by our Government Relations booth for more information (I believe it's booth #1106).
