By in large, a decent argument, but the last bit on life and death wasn’t really convincing: for one thing, people have survived for thousands (Xian) or millions (Darwin) of years without the Internet, and people can manage just as well now. Granted, it may not be as convenient or speedy, but there are less technologically savvy solutions that will work. The Internet, let us not forget, is not the ultimate human interaction, merely a technological innovation.

That said, however, I think she downplayed the most important argument for Net Neutrality: Democracy. Right now, anyone with enough money for cheap hosting can create and post information and has an equal chance at being seen and read. A tiered Internet favors those with money–sound like anything with which we’re already familiar?

Okay, seriously, you could trim the tags on the comforter, or at least hide them so they don’t stick out for the pictures.

And is that your stereo? Very nice.
