He's talking about Net Neutrality. It's been a pretty big hotbutton issue lately. Basically, there are a lot of ISP's that want to start charging operator's of websites to get preferential treatment in the delivery of their data. Big telco's like Verizon, ATT, etc. are sick of giving companies like Google and Yahoo and Microsoft what they call a "free ride". The telcos spent billions of dollars to build the infrastructure the Internet runs on and they want the companies' whose vitality depends on it to pay.
Why this is a bad thing....In the very unfortunate event something like this happens, large companies will pay the price to ensure their data gets through. To overcome this extra cost, consumers will start to see the end of their free ride. Imagine no more free webmail services, pay per search on Google, no more free viral video sites like AlbinoBlackSheep, YouTube, etc. Those companies would all have to recoup their "access" costs somehow, most likely by passing it on to the people who want to use their service. Then there is the matter of the smaller sites not getting the access they need to have a level playing field with the biggies. What if FITES had to start paying extra to get its bandwidth across. We may have to shut down. Those little Google Ads contribute a little bit, but they wouldn't do nearly enough. Sure, we could not pay the extra access fees, then we'd watch page load time go through the roof because we have to wait for all the Google search traffic to go across the Internet's routers first, while our packets wait in line with all the other "poor people".
The bottom line is that Net Neutrality is a good thing, and the big telco's that stand to make billions of dollars over a prioritzed access model are just greedy bastards.
