   Verizon Playing Dangerous,Game in Net Ne

   It's been awhile since net neutrality has been in the headlines, but   
   that doesn't mean the war is over--far from it. In it's renewed   
   challenge to the net neutrality rules imposed by the FCC, Verizon is   
   citing its First Amendment right to free speech. The argument itself   
   seems dubious, but if Verizon wins it could lead to unintended   
   consequences it might like even less.   
      
   First, a little background on net neutrality itself. The framework of   
   rules developed by the FCC is intended to ensure an even playing field   
   for all on the Internet, and prevent Internet service providers (ISPs)   
   like Verizon or Comcast from blocking certain content, or giving   
   preferential treatment to other content.
