Net Neutrality Being Examined by FTC

elrendermeister writes: Computerworld Secutity is reporting that The Federal Trade Commission has formed an Internet Access Task Force to examine whether Net neutrality advocates' fears of large broadband providers blocking or slowing Web content from competitors are justified. Chairwoman Deborah Platt Majoras on Monday also called on lawmakers to be cautious about passing a Net neutrality law, which could prohibit broadband providers such as AT&T Inc. and Comcast Corp. from giving their own Internet content top priority, or from charging Web sites additional fees for faster service.
