BBC NEWS | Technology | US backing for two-tier internet
by Mike the Usurper at 10:34 pm EDT, Sep 7, 2007

The US Justice Department has said that internet service providers should be allowed to charge for priority traffic.
The agency said it was opposed to "network neutrality", the idea that all data on the net is treated equally.

Okay, I'm a bit confused here. I can see where FCC, ICC or hell even the DoD, or SEC might espouse an opinion on this, but WTF is DoJ doing sticking their ASS in on this one?
