AT&T Calls Google a Hypocrite on Net Neutrality

AT&T is accusing Google of being a hypocrite when it comes to net neutrality. Google responded by saying "thems is fighting werds!" And so starts the first big net neutrality feud (cue banjos).

The carrier has written a letter to the Federal Communications Commission claiming that Google has violated the agency's Net neutrality principles, which Google has long supported. Google defended its position in a blog post written by Richard Whitt, Google's main lobbyist and telecommunications lawyer in Washington, that basically said AT&T is comparing apples and oranges.
