...For example, the network neutrality rules that the FCC has put inin place are necessary, Sirbu said. "But the question is whether they are necessary to be done at an international level and by an international treaty organization versus making different decisions in different national settings. Network neutrality laws, he said, may be necessary in places where there is limited access to multiple service providers. But in European nations where there is heavy competition, for instance, laws arent needed to force Internet providers to give uniform access because if a company doesn't offer the service their customers want, their competitors will. Theres also an issue of persuading developing nations to adopt a bill-and-keep mode rather than a sender-pays model, Sirbu said."

"Free speech does not mean free stuff."
