Net Neutrality: Unexpected Solution to Blockchain Scaling: Cloud-delivery networks could dramatically improve blockchains’ scalability, but clouds must be provably neutral first.
Kode Vicious Turns 100Provably neutral clouds are undoubtedly a viable solution to blockchain scaling. By optimizing the transport layer, not only can the throughput be fundamentally scaled up, but the latency could be dramatically reduced. Indeed, the latency distribution ...
Net neutrality
This paper is intended as an introduction to the debate on net neutrality and as a progress report on the growing body of academic literature on this issue. Different non-net neutrality scenarios are discussed and structured along the two dimensions of ...
Net Neutrality in Europe: Desperately seeking a market failure
Net Neutrality has become the focus of attention in the regulatory debate on the Internet. This article attempts to strip down the debate to its bare essential. It identifies two main types of Net Neutrality obligations that have been put forward and ...
