Journal Journal: Net Neutrality: The only sustainable solution

Net neutrality is an issue that is unlikely to go away. As the internet matures the threat of corporate interference if not wholesale takeover through monopoly of the "wires" that connect us will increase rather than decrease.

Despite the seeming success of the net neutrality proponents, legislation is not the solution. Not only will this result in a fee-fest for lawyers and lobbyists but it only addresses the problem in the US. Are we going to try and get every government in world to pass the same laws?

The best and only way to counter this threat is by owning the "wires" on a collective, open source style basis. The gist of the idea is outlined at www.embraceinsanity.com

We are in the early stages of development. Any input about this idea would be much appreciated.
