I spent the Friday and Saturday at Yale Law School’s Access to Knowledge conference. It is still early days in this movement, but witnessing the growth of the network and commitment to this issue is incredibly exciting. The conference has a detailed wiki for those interested in the panels, which focused a broad range of A2K issues (including my panel on Network Neutrality).

I think it’s important to distinguish between user-to-network services provided by an ISP, and the network-to-network services provided by the telcos over the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN).
ISP’s should be able to differentiate their services, just like you can choose to drive a bus or a car.
Telco’s must provide equal service to all, just like access to interstate highways and phone service is equal for all.
