Regarding Robert de Posada's “Neutralizing our online future?” (Opinion, Aug. 30):
As senior policy analyst for the San Diego Institute for Policy Research, I want to state that de Posada is right on net neutrality – government intervention in the broadband marketplace is unnecessary and harmful. Net neutrality legislation would only create new price controls and corporate red tape that would discourage future investment, hurting low-income households and Latino neighborhoods the most. Rather than roll back our progress in bridging the digital divide, state and federal lawmakers should protect market forces in the Internet frontier.
