Net Neutrality: the Netherlands open the dance...

Hello,

I am not fluent in Dutch so I cannot read the original text; however, standing to the article below

http://www.broadbandtvnews.com/2012/05/09/dutch-embrace-net-neutrality/

the Dutch parliament has just approved a new law to regulate over the so called "net neutrality" principle.
Difficult to judge without reading the original text, but telcos are losing big bucks with Skype and similar services. If on one hand perhaps Skype's usability on a mobile is not the best, on the other Whatsapp seems to become a real alternative to SMS. I am not aware of any telco filtering Whatsapp traffic but... one never knows!

Regards,
Salva

  1. You might also look at Viber — its integration with the device's native contacts application is very impressive.
