From t last week it is coming in news that there is a discussion initiated between Google and the telecom operator Verizon around the principle of Net neutrality, which is a “guarantee against discrimination with respect to the source, destination or content information transmitted over the network “, as defined by the ASIC, the Association of Community Internet Services.
According to the New York Times, the agreement would have been intended to give priority to services from Google on Verizon’s network in exchange for a fee.

The two players in the field of telecom and the Internet faces rumors by issuing a “legislative proposal” that would hurt some principles of Net neutrality.

Google and Verizon would the legislative proposal” to be implemented in the United States, with the approval of the FCC (Federal Communications Commission) relaxed rules and scalable on Net Neutrality.”Google and Verizon have worked together to find ways to preserve the neutrality of the internet” while “continuing to promote investments in access to broadband Internet”, Google said on its blog.

Both groups agree on an important principle: it can be shown restraint and discrimination legal content for operators and ISPs in the direction of Internet users. The Only problem with it is on how to identify these “legal content” circulating on the Internet? They do not say … The filtering of content perhaps?

“Provide additional services differentiated” … and priority?

However, Verizon and Google also believe that Internet access providers “have the right to a reasonable use of their network, at a time when ISPs want to implement a congestion of their networks to cope with the explosion of web traffic.

The product is expected to be launched this fall.

Microsoft, Google and RIM (BlackBerry) is up against Apple. This competition is now fierce bursts. The iPad is indeed a phenomenal success. There are more than three million copies sold.

The change will be coming with the new guidelines given in the Android Market Developer Distribution Agreement. But it will take another month for the finalization and the carriers to sign for it.

The announcement came on Friday the 23^rd when internet legend Tim Bray wrote on the developer’s blog about the impending changes that will be coming soon.

The blog went like ‘Please note that we have updated the Android Market Developer Distribution Agreement (DDA). This is in preparation for some work we’re doing on introducing new payment options, which we think developers will like.” He further went on to write indicating the changes that have been brought “In Section 13.1, “authorized carriers” have been added as an indemnified party”

Till now this payment option of adding the purchases in the monthly wireless bills have been given to the consumers only by T-mobiles. A total of 30 days have been given to the carriers to adhere to the new terms and conditions. This means users don’t have to whip out their credit cards to pay for the apps before they can download them.

All major providers like the Verizon, AT&T, and Sprint have high-end Android phones so all these will surely join in the new billing plans. However Bray wasn’t specific as to which all additional carriers will support this payment plan because the term used in the blog only specified ‘authorized carriers’ but failed to give details.. Additional payment options will surely lead to more purchases which will be good for developers as well as the carriers. The payment plan will bring some additional revenue for carriers and another incentive to carry Android phones. So the plan is good for all parties.

Developers too are all smiles for this change, this will also bring about a positive impact as new change it will also allow people to get the applications more easily.

The official announcement is expected to come later this month about more US and perhaps even some international carriers will be signed on as business partners.

As per BGR, “We don’t have to stretch our minds very far to imagine this happening, but let us hope this piece of intel retains its rumor status well past the 29th.”

T-Mobile and Sprint, have no aims of following Verizon and AT&T into the world of capped connections.
