The FCC reports to Congress, who makes the laws. The FCC doesn't pass legislation. Do you really think that your congressperson can explain what a sliding window protocol is? I know mine can't.

QoS is only necessary on networks that face congestion. If your network is well built, you won't need QoS.
Sure, if you can justify spending your money on overprovisioning your network.

Comcast can't?

Overprovisiong your network doesn't necessarilly mean beefing up everything on the core side. It can just simply mean..

I'm going to say it again. Rate. Limit. If you're not providing so much bandwidth to your customers that theres a problem, then you don't need QoS.

And we should just get all of the network managers together to pass legislation? What about the fact that different companies at different levels have different views as to the importance of various legislation, and the majority are going to be the lowest levels, who would be able to out vote the upper tier ISPs. No thanks on that either. I'd rather let the FCC, an independent group discuss it and make the decisions and laws get passed based on that, than anything else proposed.

Unless you have a better idea?
