Cdn traffic management hearings to start Monday

03.07.2009

In an interview Friday, University of Ottawa Internet law professor Michael Giest believes the commission should deal with what he calls the easy issues -- ordering ISPs to divulge to customers what they do in traffic management, be more up front in their advertising of expected network speeds, assure subscribers of better privacy protection and give promises there will be no anti-competitve behaviour.

Other issues, he said, such as 'net neutrality, may have to go to legislators.
