U.S. appeals court strikes down net neutrality. (Off-Topic)

Later this year I get Google Fiber! From what they've said they plan on keeping their service neutral, so I am hopefully it won't impact me.

Hmm... ya know, if it was anyone but Google, I wouldn't believe them. Not to suggest that Google is faultless, but historically I think they've been much better about playing nice with others than their peers. And if it's a contest between them and the established/entrenched ISPs (the Comcasts and AT&Ts of the world), I'd definitely feel better trusting Google. If Google ever comes here, I'm in. Unfortunately for me, Des Moines is big enough to have everything (other than fiber), but not big enough for anyone to notice us.
