Big Players In Web Services Such As Google, Amazon, eBay Team Up To Support Net Neutrality

On one side the argument is that it is all about piracy matter, and on the other side the argument is that the Internet should be opened.  More than 22 players with big names such as Google, Twitter, Facebook, eBay, Amazon, and others are teaming up together in a signed letter sent to Federal Communications Commission Chairman Julius Genachowski to support his standing on Net Neutrality.  These players insist that in order for the Internet and related technologies to advance in the 21st century, the Internet needs to stay open, otherwise a closed Internet environment can only hamper the progress of the future in term of technology.  One can see clearly that these players have a point, but of course underneath of everything they want the open Internet to stay open as it helps the bottom lines of theirs.  I also favor this standing too!  The ISP companies such as AT&T, Verizon, and Comcast are opposing to the rules that Net Neutrality has proposed because of the same thing which is the bottom lines.  Though with just a little hard at work in stimulating the brain cells of mine, I know that an Internet model the ISP companies are supporting is a negative one, and it can really hamper the future of many small technological startups.  We live in an information age, and the pipelines that are allowing the information to flow are the keys.  To constrict the flows of information is like to dampen the future of everything that this century is counting on.
