Thank you Chairman Inouye, Vice Chair Stevens, and other members of the Committee. I first want to thank you for all your service to this country and I am honored to have been asked to testify today. Net neutrality and an open online marketplace are critical to the future of the Internet and to the preservation of our rights.

Well, that was fun. I reprint my testimony as prepared, not as delivered. I also cut a very insider joke. I'd planned to start: “Mr. Chairman, I understand that this is the open Commission meeting, so it is perhaps no surprise that we are running an hour late. Also, as I have not had time to complete this testimony, I ask for editorial privileges.”

This announcement came in the wake of intense criticism of the giant cable company and Internet service provider for controlling its customers' use of BitTorent to exchange files.
