Will the Model Eat Your Stack?

Understand your Subsumption Window: the time between a product’s launch and the moment when a future model can replicate the product’s core functionality, out of the box.

How to Use GenAI with OKRs (Without Letting It Think for You)

There’s a dangerous temptation with AI right now: outsourcing your thinking. Don’t. Your brain is still your most important asset. AI’s job isn’t to think for you — it’s to help you thi…

Sentinel Tip - Prioritize Data Sources: Identify and prioritize critical data sources for ingestion. Prioritization ensures that the most important data is collected first. #DataSources #Prioritization #Ingestion

Last week, the Sixth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled against the FCC,
rejecting its authority to classify broadband as a Title II “telecommunications service.”

In doing so, the court removed net neutrality protections for all Americans
and  took away the FCC’s ability to meaningfully regulate internet service providers.

This ruling fundamentally gets wrong the reality of internet service we all live with every day.
Nearly 80% of Americans view broadband access to be as important as water and electricity.
It is no longer an extra, non-necessary “information service,” as it was seen 40 years ago,
but it is a vital medium of communication in everyday life.

Business, health services, education, entertainment, our social lives, and more have increasingly moved online.
By ruling that broadband “information service” and not a “telecommunications service”
this court is saying that the ISPs that control your broadband access will continue to face little to no oversight for their actions.
This is intolerable.
Net neutrality is the principle that ISPs treat all data that travels over their network equally,
without improper discrimination in favor of particular apps, sites, or services.
At its core, net neutrality is a principle of equity and protector of innovation
—that, at least online, large monopolistic ISPs don’t get to determine winners and losers.
Net neutrality ensures that users determine their online experience, not ISPs.
As such, it is fundamental to user choice, access to information, and free expression online.

By removing protections against actions like #blocking, #throttling, and #paid #prioritization,
the court gives those willing and able to pay ISPs an advantage over those who are not.
It privileges large legacy corporations that have partnerships with the big ISPs,
and it means that newer, smaller, or niche services will have trouble competing, even if they offer a superior service.
It means that ISPs can throttle your service
–or that of, say, a fire department fighting the largest wildfire in state history.
They can block a service they don’t like.
In addition to charging you for access to the internet, they can charge services and websites for access to you, -- artificially driving up costs.
And where most Americans have little choice in home broadband providers, i
t means these ISPs will be able to exercise their #monopoly power not just on the price you pay for access, but how you access and engage with information as well.
Moving forward, now more than ever it becomes important for individual states to pass their own net neutrality laws,
or defend the ones they have on the books.
#California passed a gold standard net neutrality law in 2018 that has survivedjudicial scrutiny.
It is up to us to ensure it remains in place.
#Congress can also end this endless whiplash of reclassification and decide, once and for all, by passing a law classifying broadband internet services firmly under Title II.
Such proposals have been introduced before;
they ought to be introduced again.
