Definition of terms
Cathy (not verified)  2008-01-22 20:35   

Sorry to have posted and run...

I see what you're saying. Details aside, if everything you say is true then what we really seem to have is an issue of definition of terms. Because maybe you're right, and certain kinds of Internetworking is less equal to other Internetworking, but then you seem to be talking about discrimination on a different level than what the debate about "network neutrality" is about. Perhaps there's some overlap when it comes to discriminating based on the shape of the packet, but even then I'm not sure that discriminating over aspects such as TCP/UDP is the same thing as discriminating based on the application using a particular packet (e.g., P2P, HTTP, etc.) and it certainly isn't the same thing as discriminating based on the particular content carried by the packet (e.g., independent content v. Time Warner content...)
