Great piece from Markup looking at throttling on X / Twitter. Back in the day these intentional delays would be a #NetworkNeutrality issue but we don't have anything close for platforms. I think the term conveience, as I've heard Marc Steinberg discuss, is better in some way, and how all these platforms work my manipulating conveience and cultural expectations with computers.
Still a good theme in my old book too: HTTPS://internetdaemons.com

CW: Long thread/12
One expression of end-to-end is #NetworkNeutrality, the idea that carriers shouldn't be allowed to slow down the data you request unless the service you're trying to use pays for "premium carriage."
Social media has run the internet transitions in reverse. They started off as end-to-end, neutral platforms. You created an account, told them which data you wanted, and they put it in a feed for you.

#EU #Broadband #BigTelco #NetworkFees #NetworkNeutrality: "Digital rights groups are strongly against the introduction of network usage fees, for reasons that range from its inherent – and unsolvable – contradiction with net neutrality, to the detrimental impact that network fees will have on European consumers. In its contribution to the exploratory consultation, the NGO Epicenter.works reminds the Commission that network fees “simply cannot be done without infringing on net neutrality”.
The Internet Society echoes: “The introduction of a mandatory payment mechanism would be directly inconsistent and incompatible with [net neutrality] obligations, with direct harm to consumers as a result. For instance, enforcement of the new obligation would give ISPs the right to treat traffic differently, e.g., by allowing them to block, or in other ways penalize, services that do not wish to pay the ISP. In consequence, users would no longer have access to an open Internet, but would be limited to the services that have concluded an agreement to pay their ISP.”
Eventually, end users would suffer most if big telcos get their way. “Consumers will be hurt by poorer service quality and higher prices. SMEs will also face higher prices and a deteriorating service quality as network topology adapts to this artificial price regulation. The cost of innovating in Europe will increase and the resilience of the overall internet could fall below required levels to overcome a potential next crisis. Smaller ISPs currently do more for network development than incumbents, yet they will be hit particularly hard in their ability to compete,” according to Epicenter.works."

@theverge This is an interesting retrospective. It is also interesting to note how the idea of #networkneutrality has changed. @techpolicy

CW: Long thread/8
Principles can be integrated into professional codes of ethics, or procurement rules for public bodies ("Our university only buys end to end services"). Tech groups and publications can use principles to rank competing technologies ("Which network providers are end to end?").
#NetworkNeutrality is a way of operationalizing E2E: the idea of #NetNeutrality is that carriers should be obliged to treat all traffic the same.

@jpmens May be also a comment on how to find out which resolver(s) were proposed by DHCP because sometimes they can be the only ones reachable.
