Abstract:
In the last two years, the U.S. Federal Commmunications Commission has moved swiftly to remove old rules (common carriage) and impose new ones (E911, CALEA). Prof. Crawford will summarize these developments and assess the current U.S. debate about network owners' provision of a 'prioritized Internet.'
