The Return of Tech at Night: Net Neutrality, Internet Kill Switch
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | February 22nd at 01:30 AM |
I’m back. CPAC week came and went. Then another week came and went after the horrible cold I got at CPAC. But now I’m healthy again and it’s time to start catching up. Though there’s no way I’m going to post on every tidbit I’ve run across in the last two weeks, I can try to hit the highlights. And let’s start with the fact | Read More »

Tech at Night: Free Press, FCC, Net Neutrality, Comcast, Level 3, OpenBSD, Wikileaks
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | December 16th at 03:00 AM |
Once upon a time I used to be sleep at midnight. Of course, if I’d buckle down and get Tech at Night out the door a few hours earlier, then I’d be able to be asleep right now at midnight, I suppose. Regardless, here we go. The FCC’s Net Neutrality vote is still on for the 21st, that is, Tuesday. Of course they’d miss the | Read More »

Tech at Night: Net Neutrality, Copyright, iPhone, Verizon
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | December 11th at 03:00 AM |
Happy Weekend. As I write this it’s already the 11th, so you have two shopping weeks left before Christmas. Oops, is it still legal on the Internet not to say Holiday? Some quick hits for the weekend as we continue to wait on the FCC to explain itself and its plans for radical new Internet regulation. George Ou points out that if Netflix gets to | Read More »

Tech at Night: Net Neutrality difficulties, more Level 3 v Comcast
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | December 7th at 03:30 AM |
I’ve been saying lately that the likely Net Neutrality outcome wouldn’t be bad at all, that we’d get a compromise that disappoints the radical left far more than it disappoints us. But it’s not a done deal. We’ve got to keep the pressure up, both as activists and through the incoming Republican majority in the House. The FCC must respect the 2010 elections and their | Read More »

Comcast did the right and fair thing cutting off Level 3
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | December 2nd at 05:45 AM |
There’s a lot of heat and unfortunately not enough light being produced online with respect to the recent decision by Comcast to cut off its free peering deal with Level 3, thanks to the throwing around of the name Netflix. People like Netflix and want to know what’s going on. I even have a Netflix streaming-only account. So I’ll try to explain here what’s going | Read More »
Tech at Night: Netflix, Comcast, Level 3, Peering, Net Neutrality
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | December 2nd at 05:30 AM |
Just as I was saying copyright was soon to replace Net Neutrality as the big tech issue of the moment, circumstances prove me wrong. Instead, regardless of the results of the December FCC meeting and the future of that whole Net Neutrality debate (more later), the coming issue now is going to be peering. Some will play word games and say it’s all covered under | Read More »
