How Bell and CBC Ignited Network Neutrality Debate in Canada
Date : 2008 03 30 Category : Web News
There has been a lot of talk about network neutrality in Canada these days. The debate started out as a quiet whisper when Rogers started throttling BitTorrent, but now the debate has gone from chilled to hot - and now, it has intensified over the past few days.
It's amazing how far one posting can go. The intensity of the debate quickly increased when someone mentioned that Teksavvy, an internet company who disagrees with throttling, was not engaged in throttling.
Shortly after, the CBC, one of Canada’s biggest broadcasters that is subsidized by the taxpayer, released Canada’s Great Prime Minister on BitTorrent.
