    12. Little attention to broadband
      • Why is the broadband infrastructure not regarded as top priority by local government?
        • ”Too complicated / too technical”
        • ”EU wants a free market”
        • ”It is only a new TV network”
        • ”Broadband is not a part of an essential infrastructure”
      • ” Too complicated / too technical”
        • Wrong: Broadband networks has been around for the last 30 years. The technology is plain vanilla
      • ” EU wants a free market”
        • Yes, but this is an infrastructure market and it will never be free. Services on the infrastructure must be free
      • ” It is only a new TV network”
        • Wrong: Entertainmaint is one out for thousands of services on a brodaband network
      • ” Broadband is not a part of an essential infrastructure”
        • Wrong: This infrastructure is as essential as road, utilities, water,
    13. Network neutrality
      • What is it?
        • A neutral broadband network is one that is free of restrictions on content, sites, or platforms, on the kinds of equipment that may be attached, and on the modes of communication allowed, as well as one where communication is not unreasonably degraded by other communication streams, or:
        • network neutrality is the principle that all Internet traffic should be treated equally
      • What is the problem?
        • That the provider of infrastructure often is the same as the provider of services
      Wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_neutrality
    14. Network neutrality
      • In a non-netural network you may experience:
        • Restrictions on how you communicate and with whom
        • Bundling of prices across services and infrastructure
        • Poor or no service from providers with no relation to the infrastructure owner
