[governance] Vint Cerf OpEd in the New York Times: "Keep the Internet Open"

[Adam Peake]

Hamadoun Toure, May 1 speaking about WCIT:
"There are many important issues that may be addressed at WCIT, but I 
would like to focus on one broader issue in particular: how do we 
ensure sufficient investment in broadband network infrastructure?"
and
"And, the current ITRs are not properly equipped to deal with this 
challenge either, which raises the question of how all this new 
infrastructure will be paid for?"
and
"Everyone wants mobile broadband and the benefits it will bring. But 
few seem willing to pay for it -- including both the over-the-top 
players, who are generating vast new demand through their 
applications, and consumers, who have become accustomed to unlimited 
packages."
