content: It's not, they're two entirely separate issues.  CNS wants to tie directly into TWC's network and not have to pay for their traffic.  TWC isn't throttling them, TWC wants them to pay for their speed and uplink into their network. CNS is conflating this as a net neutrality issue when it's not to generate bad PR for TWC, and it's working.  CNS doesn't even currently peer with TWC, they peer with Level3 who peers with TWC.  If anyone should be complaining about peering, it would be Level3, and no one in their right mind is throttling Level3.
