McCain vs Obama on the Internet

Interesting & enlightening article on Slate. Details the difference between the Obama & McCain camp on Internet policy. Essentially, boils down to:

McCain: Internet is a Product, and should be commoditized & sold. Market will take care of itself, and no regulation is necessary. Anti Net-Neutrality.

Obama: Internet is an platform, and should be protected as an open economy. Prescriptive regulation is likely necessary. Pro Net-Neutrality.

Strongly with Obama on this, but draw your own conclusions.
