Gamers Get A Network Neutrality Wake-Up Call

logo-psuThe internet is so interwoven into everyday life for so many people on a personal level that it's hard to imagine a world without it. Throw in entertainment and the internet probably touches most of what you like to do for fun as well. For video game players the internet has become integral to their hobby. Whether it's Sony's PlayStation Network, Microsoft's Xbox Live Arcade, or Nintendo's Wi-Fi online support someone with any of the big three machines has something to connect up with others.

PlayStation Universe has issued a wake-up call to gamers of all stripes about network neutrality. While I'm certainly glad that one of the bigger gaming blogs "gets it", I'd like to welcome PSU to 2006. They've got a couple of years of catching up to do and while I hope they keep a close eye on the network neutrality debate and report on it further, if you'd like to keep an eye on things yourself I highly suggest following BroadbandReports.com. Not only does it cover network neutrality when there are movements on that issue, it also covers other bigger internet service and industry related issues that could affect all of us -- gamers and online addicts alike.

If you'd like to see my own posts on the smoldering network neutrality debate, you can check out this thread.
