Qwest's Quest to Limit Users' Use of the Internet
SaschaMeinrath.com, January 11, 2006
I've been talking with a number of different people about the upcoming showdown over network neutrality in a post Brand X world. Recently, Brett Glass (from Lariat.org [1]) sent along his thoughts on the new Quest Communications user agreement. Quest's acceptible use policy is of particular concern because, as Brett sums up:
