American Enterprise Institute blogger Mark Jamison has some insights I have not seen elsewhere regarding how new technologies are likely to make existing regulations on net neutrality meaningless. Examples of how technology is making a difference:
1) 5G networks will be based on network slicing, which means the network will be customized to different types of traffic.
2) Netflix is investing in proprietary networks and is becoming less dependent on public ones. Other large gobblers of bandwidth are doing the same.
3) Mobile apps are being used more. Apps are not open but they are targeted to user needs.
A larger lesson -- in markets where technology is changing quickly, regulations have difficulty keeping up. If they are enforced too strictly, they can actually interfere with progress.
