Flutterby™! : Time Warner: our customers want slow networks

You Don’t Want Super-High-Speed Internet, Says Time Warner Cable

I just finished reading Tim Wu's The Master Switch: The Rise and Fall of Information Empires, which documents very clearly how the communications monopolists have repeatedly actively worked to suppress innovation because it conflicted with how their business model worked. Again and again the "we know how our customers will use this", really "we want to dictate how our customers will use this", was used to suppress innovation.

So, yeah: Dear Time Warner: We can see what you're trying to do. Fuck you.
