I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

    • Antinous / Moderator

      What part of “but” are you unclear on?

        In your rush to be snarky, you may have missed the snark.

          Are you suggesting that Antinous may have “jumped the snark?”

    This is a good, simple explanation of net neutrality. Thanks for this!

    Compare and contrast with:

    “They want to deliver vast amounts of information over the Internet. And again, the Internet is not something that you just dump something on. It’s not a big truck. It’s a series of tubes. And if you don’t understand, those tubes can be filled and if they are filled, when you put your message in, it gets in line and it’s going to be delayed by anyone that puts into that tube enormous amounts of material, enormous amounts of material.”  – Ted “Bridge to Nowhere” Stevens, 2006

    Somehow, his state got a reputation for sending corrupt and belligerent ignorami to the capitol.
