AT&T T $26.49 -0.12 0.45% 22,761,884 NYSE: WSJ pA19 "Google and the Problem With Net Nueutrality" by Bret Swanson says on 9/25 AT&T accused Google of violating the net neutrality principles Google has righteously sought for others. Net ueutrality is based on the concept of an open and fair Web, where all apps and data packets are treated equally. Google says it doesn't have to abide by rules meant for telecom companies. But with the Internet obliterating such distinctions, this defense exposes net neutrality's inherent flaws. Google Voice is a new services that rings all of a user's phone lines simultaneously and provides conference calling and voice mail features. It is possible because the Web and phone lines have converged and Google uses the broadband networks. But google Voice blocks access to some rural areas and conferencing services that would impose big fees on Google. This is what AT&t is challenging because AT&T uses AT&T's and others expensive network.
