Grayson troubles me on the Google/Verison Deal
He is taking the position that favors this limiting as the deal would do. Anyone know why he is taking this position which is so different from what he normally takes?

4. If you read I was asking a question
this is information I got from a group fighting against it and I am asking for someone to inform me so how can I furnish a link when I am looking for information? I wish you would read better before you post such a statement and maybe then you can help answer the question instead of wasting my time and yours with such a useless response.

5. You could provide SOME sort of context so others can know WTF

you're referring to. Otherwise, you're simply wasting OUR time.

"He is taking the position that favors this limiting as the deal would do."

That's not context, nor does it make any sense.

3. I believe his position is a tad misunderstood
As I understand it, he doesn't want net neutrality to be established by regulation. He wants it established by law.

"I say in the letter that I support the policy of net neutrality. I don't know how I could be more explicit than that," he told HuffPost. "There is a question, though, of how to reach that conclusion, and it's a legitimate question. My own feeling is that we should not allow a matter like this to be resolved by regulation, because regulations can be changed very easily. We saw this all the time with the Bush administration. I think it is preferable to have the principle of net neutrality enshrined in statute."
