Created article[edit]

I created this article to accommodate some material from the network neutrality article (which links here). Still needs extension.--SasiSasi (talk) 02:14, 28 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This article appears highly agenda-driven without examining the subject or defining it appropriately. The given definition is vague and has no reference frame in the technical aspects of managing data flows in networks and instead immediately associates "data discrimination" with ISPs. "Assigning priorities to data frames" (whatever that means) has nothing per se to with discrimation within the apparent intent of the article.

What is "date prioritization"? Kbrose (talk) 23:11, 4 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

...suppose to be "data prioritization"... the definition is for data prioritization as per source. I originally created the article to accommodate material from the network neutrality article. I think although the two terms appear to be used interchangeably (at least by some) its probably better to rename the article "date prioritization" with a section entitled "data discrimination" where this has been alleged/mentioned. --SasiSasi (talk) 00:06, 5 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Incoherent article[edit]

This article is nothing but an incoherent collection of incidents and assertions without even defining what data discrimination is. The (now altered) definition read that it is the assigning of priorities to frames, but this is actually the definition of prioritization, not discrimination. Having defined discrimination wrongly (obviously) the article then goes to cite incidents of service blockage by some ISPs, which seems to be completely unrelated to the original definition. How Internet censorship figures into this at the end is anyone's guess. Obviously the title and content were and are still out of sync with each other. This needs a complete rewrite to provide any intelligent presentation. Kbrose (talk) 20:15, 5 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Still does not actually define Data "Discrimination"[edit]

Would someone with more knowledge of the subject please add the definition of data discrimination please? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Miles1683 (talkcontribs) 03:41, 26 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

New Content[edit]

My partner and I added a ton of new content that hopefully fits what you all are looking for. We're with the Michigan State University Ambassador crew, and what we added is for our final assignment. Let us know what you think about our contribution. Olsenedw (talk) 22:51, 3 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Upstatelee18 (talk) 02:25, 18 November 2016 (UTC)The instances of data discrimination need to be worked into paragraphs on the various types of data discrimination or those activities considered data discrimination by network architecture experts. also why is the definition of data discrimination out of an economics journal and not a computer networking text. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Upstatelee18 (talk[reply]

== data discrimination vs. using data to discriminate ==

The term data discrimination means to most of us an instance where data itself is impeded from passing through a network at a given bandwidth or speed. however when you google the same words what comes up is primarily articles on the use of big data to discriminate against groups or individuals. i think a seperate article is needed for the other meaning for proper disambiguation. --Upstatelee18 (talk) 17:56, 18 November 2016 (UTC) the material in this article about regulations and proposed legislation needs to be updated and fit properly in the correct subheading depending on what the regs. and laws are specifically about.

Censorship, not discrimination[edit]

This article is an outdated mess.

E.g. this:

In 2005, Canadian telephone giant Telus blocked access to voices-for-change.ca, a website supporting the company's labour union during a labour dispute, as well as over 600 other websites, for about sixteen hours after pictures were posted on the website of employees crossing the picket line.[28]

is simple censorship, not "discrimination". Zezen (talk) 05:18, 16 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
