Black and white

Just now: http://arstechnica.com/news.ars/post/20081103-obama-goes-gun...

  Perhaps more significantly, there is no reference to network neutrality, perhaps the single tech
  issue on which the gap between Obama and McCain is most pronounced. At the 2007 Google talk, Obama
  declared he would "take a backseat to no one in my commitment to network neutrality, because once
  providers start to privilege some applications or Web sites over others, then the smaller voices get
  squeezed out and we all lose."

They edited out the Network Neutrality part of the videos. Ars Technica says it, not me.

Go ahead, mod me down again. Have a nice cozy groupthink and keep voting whoever you fashion while shutting down any dissent. That can never go wrong, right?

Did you read the updated version they changed Information to Ideas but it says:

Ensure the Full and Free Exchange of Ideas through an Open Internet and Diverse Media Outlets

Protect the Openness of the Internet: A key reason the Internet has been such a success is because it is the most open network in history. It needs to stay that way. Barack Obama strongly supports the principle of network neutrality to preserve the benefits of open competition on the Internet.

Edit: I know it's an important issue to some people, but it's not something that's important to voters so it's going to get dropped from speeches.
