Hello,
This article has to do with teh debate going on in Congress right now about attempting to create a "Two-Tier" Internet, where some sites are treated differently than others. Companies like eBay and Google oppose the ruling; saying that they want to ensure that there is just one internet and that the government doesn't have control over it. Supporters of the two-tier system say that this is just a way for eBay and Google to avoid paying taxes. As of now, the idea of a completely neutral Internet has already been struck down, and the FCC has asserted its power to hear complaints in regard to Internet-related disputes. It will be inteersting to see how this plays out in the next few years.
