Description: Fallacy of Net Neutrality, Paperback by Hazlett, Thomas W., ISBN 159403592X, ISBN-13 9781594035920, Brand New, Free shipping in the US There is little dispute that the Internet should continue as an open platform, notes the Federal Communications Commission. Yet in a curious twist of logic, the FCC has moved to upend the rules yielding that outcome, imposing network neutrality regulations on broadband-access providers. The new mandates purport to prevent Internet gatekeepers by prohibiting networks from favoring certain applications. In this comprehensive Broadside, Thomas W. Hazlett explains the faulty economic logic behind the FCCs regulations. The open Internetthriving without such mandatesallows consumers, investors, and entrepreneurs to choose the best platforms and products, testing rival business models. Networks are actively (and efficiently) involved in managing traffic and promoting popular applications, making the entire ecosystem more valuable. This is a spontaneous market process, not a planned structure, and the commissions restrictions threaten to stifle innovation and economic growth.
