Google CEO Weighs In On Net Neutrality

An interesting article was posted today on Enterprise Open Source Magazine on this week's keynote at the SES (Search Engine Strategies) Strategies Conference & Expo by Eric Schmidt, Google CEO.

Google CEO Eric Schmidt Tackles Net Neutrality and AJAX — Schmidt touched on net neutrality during his keynote presentation, noting that Google remains steadfastly opposed to legislation being pushed by the telcos and now moving through Congress that would establish multi-tier Internet pricing. He said Google will be able to handle any increase in its costs if this legislation ultimately becomes law, but it remains opposed to it on the principle of maintaining the status quo 'neutral' environment.

Schmidt's take on AJAX was also very interesting. Definitely a worthwhile article to include in your industry reading.
