I don't appreciate the direction the nn discussion has gone. To me the core and fundamental principal of innovation and growth is connectivity - pure, raw, naked and unfettered access to an open network. I am and always have been able to choose any "edge" provider or network service or content I desire, always. This is not true with regards to simple connectivity. These two things are being improperly (nefariously, imo) tied together much like the access and content mergers - these two things simply do not belong together - access is not content is not access. I do recognize and understand the broader discussion around content and services when it pertains to inordinate impact, influence or control via overly influential and controlling services - services which, for the most part, we can still all choose whether or not to use whenever we want.

The only true and immediate threats I can currently perceive are coming from those controlling the gates to access. We've been robbed of the basic premise of title II protections for a vital communications service because we allowed the topic of discussion to change. "Network Neutrality" was never a good hook and now it has enabled the loss of focus on the core problem that is ISP service in this country. Twitter content? No so much.
