<div dir="ltr"><div><div class="gmail_quote">This was actually as good a discussion on NN as we've seen. In contrast to the usual suspects, ably herded/goaded by The Verge's Nilay Patel, we had own ISOC-NY Director Jonathan Askin, who admitted major responsibility for the whole mess, as it was his 2004 win in the FCC's <a href="http://www.techlawjournal.com/topstories/2004/20040212b.asp">Pulver Decision</a> which opened the whole "information service" can of worms; and then Telecom gadfly Bruce Kushnick, who took pains to point out that the whole "reclassification' debate is moot, at least as far as the ILECs go, as their underlying infrastructure is already Title II - he accuses them, when it comes to their cable services, of "title-shopping" to have it both ways. He got a big cheer. Rounding out the panel, and representing the NYC startup scene, we had Etsy and Meetup policy officers , Althea Erickson & David Pashman. At one point Althea suggested that, if it weren't for NN, we'd all still be stuck with Google Video!. while David outright accused NN opponents of mendacity. Meanwhile, the audience included a good proportion of totally oblivious tourists and passers-by, giving the whole affair a vaguely Coney Islandish 'Shoot The Freak" ambience.. Shoot the wonk?</div>
