Bingo, right on! And that is why companies like AT&T, Comcast, COX and Verizon, just to name the biggest, do everything to limit Internet access. Remember Windwos95? That piece of operating system hardly made any contribution to the Internet, and yet it did include a "personal web server". The idea was simple: anybody could use their own PC as web server (server!) and make their own music, photos, movies, whatever available to everybody. That was exactly what the developers of the World Wide Web at CERN (Europe) had in mind (first for physicists, though). We put our work onto our computers and let other people access it, and vice versa. Democracy via the Internet.
A decade later and all US customers get is a couch potato Internet. The named companies simply block access from third parties to your web server (or any other Internet server for that matter). The telcos force their customers to us the telcos' servers, and control who can upload what and how much. They sell that as "web space", something that would not exist without the telco censorship. Of course customers could upload their work and store it on third party sites, such as Google. Now who own the work? Who controls access? Who benefits? You see, no difference.
You might ask why the telcos are doing that. The answer is simple: Big Media. Big Media, telcos (phone, Internet, TV) and companies like Google work hand in hand. Just read Google's definition of "Net Neutrality" at http://www.google.com/help/netneutrality.html - no word about the people's right to offer their pictures, their movies, their work on their own computers. It is all about Google in the middle.
And for those readers who have a problem to see the connection e.g. between Verizon and let's say NBC, I suggest this: Verizon - MSN - MSNBC.
And COX? Or Comcast? They are Internet "service" providers and TV cable companies in one. The last thing they want is to give their customers any freedom.
And what happens if we could put valuable information on our own web server? A live without the propaganda machines at ABC, CBS, CNN, FOX etc.? Without influence by big politics? How unamerican!
Right on, David! Big Media Fear Your Video Upload and more.
