Why Obama’s plan to save the Internet could actually ruin it - The Washington Post
If you read the hype placed upon it. It is better then Sliced Bread. But that is not the case. As it stands now there are certain services that have priority over the Web (Digital Voice, Digital TV) The reason that they are is if they were not, the transmission latency would cause the conversation on your phone to sound choppy and you TV to become pixilated.
I have been in IT for 20 years now. I have grown into a position of A Network Administrator and I know how data flows from point A to point B.
I will try to explain how this works is simpler terms. Look at it this way; A Data packet as a Car on a highway each car has beginning point ( Its home) and a destination (place of work) the beginning point has an Address (123 my-street any-town any-state zip code ) and the destination has a similar address format. The same is true with a data packet. We all have sat in traffic during rush hour also true with data, so that is how date flows on the web.
Look at a data packet like this. IT could be voice, TV website, email… This information is too big to send all at once. So it is broken up into smaller packets and all packets have to be the same size. Explanation: let say you have 100 page document hypothetically. The post office says this too big for us to send all at once. So you put page one in one envelope page two in another envelope…… You send all 100 envelops. Now pages 1,5,50.65 92.83 get there on day one not the whole document and is lacking all the information. On day 2 the rest of the document arrives except page 60. The recipient says resend page 60 the next day page 60 arrives. Now the recipient can rebuild the document. This is exactly how data is transmitted across the Web but instead of days it is in micro seconds.
Let’s go back to cars on a highway. It is very congested. Here comes a voice packet ( let say a police car or fire truck , ambiance) all other cars on the highway move over to let it pass. The reasons that voice TV are prioritized; If it has any latency it can not function properly. The disassembly and rebuild of the packets have to be accomplished almost instantly or it can not work. That is why they have priority. What net neutrality states is no packet will have any priority. All data will be treated equal. This is the problem. TV and voice have to move fast to work properly. And there is the congestion on the web. A problem that will need to be addressed. Now the telecoms have to build bigger highways to fix the problems. This costs money. The only thing Net neutrality will do is increase the cost services to the customers.
