TECH MANUFACTURERS RALLY AGAINST NET NEUTRALITY
[SOURCE: C-Net|News.com, AUTHOR: Anne Broache]
Producers of networking hardware and applications gathered around a podium at the U.S. Capitol on Tuesday with a single message: Not all "high-tech" companies support so-called Net neutrality legislation. At a press conference , more than a dozen representatives from companies like Corning, Tyco and Motorola urged the U.S. Senate to pass the massive Senate communications bill -- attacked by Net neutrality fans for failing to ensure nondiscriminatory treatment of Internet content -- as soon as possible. Rep. Bobby Rush (D-IL), a primary sponsor of a narrower House of Representatives measure approved in June by a 321 to 101 vote, joined the industry representatives in calling for Senate action "right away." He stressed that the legislation will "deliver much-needed relief to cable rates" sought by his Chicago-area constituents.
