Arizona Sen. John McCain announced that he opposes "net neutrality." McCain appeared at the All Things Digital conference in Carlsbad, Calif., and said he did not think government regulation of internet service providers to stop them from censoring, slowing down, or otherwise disrupting consumer’s access to the internet in order to stifle competitors or undesirable content was an appropriate solution. "When you control the pipe you should be able to get profit from your investment,” he said, according to TheDailyBackground.com. Later, McCain said: "I’m all for the government encouraging competition, but I’ve found over time that less government involvement is better."

Ok, so, McCain opposes Net Neutrality and leans more towards "laissez-faire" when it comes down to the economic standards of the WWW. He does not wish for Net Neutrality and would not to involve the government in stimulating the internet either.
