Realistically I think the only way to get net neturality back is some kind of alliance of powerful corporate start-ups like Google + NetFlix + Amazon (especially since Amazon has Amazon Prime instant video + AWS).

I know that Google is pro net neutrality but I'm surprised they weren't able to push back.  Seeing as how money is what makes these kinds of things talk, what went wrong? Was something just not organized properly in this battle?

South Korea, which is years ahead of us in terms of infrastructure with its net etc. has already been facing issues when its net neutrality was struck down a few years ago, and ISPs were allowed to block VoIP services like Kakao Talk.

They're running into conflicts over Smart TV - I feel that just like their gaming industry, maybe this is our future. Maybe there just needs to be a stronger corporate coalition.

attached is an interesting/frightening graphic that's been making the rounds.  per info from jenny, sudo mesh has so far been able to foil google's attempts to pull information but i'm not sure how that applies to ISPs' practice of performing deep packet inspection.  I think getting behind/setting up tor nodes will help slow them down but it will be an arms race as long as we have an oligopoly on internet connectivity.  any other ideas?  also if anyone has advice on setting up a tor exit node, I'm trying to set up a home file server this weekend and would like to start experimenting.  if htere is a server just sitting at sudo room, i'd be glad to borrow it and run an exit node, maybe host some stuff for people.

cheers
