Andrew McLaughlin and Evgeny Morozov and will debate the sincerity, utility
and repercussions of America's commitment to a free Internet. They will
discuss the desireability of network neutrality and network regulation in

growing needs of law enforcement agencies; and the emerging threats to
freedom of expression that are inherent in the technical design as well as
the business imperatives of today's Web.
