As I say, or as I do?

FCC Chairman Kevin Martin says the FCC has the authority to enforce network neutrality, and AT&T CEO Ed Whitacre apparently said at the same conference that his company won't block Internet applications.

OK, if that's the case, what's so scary about an explicit FCC network neutrality policy?

Perhaps it's that both Martin and Whitacre (and their supporters) want the freedom to do something different, when push comes to shove.
