Sen. Al Franken (D-Minn.) began his questioning of Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor (see video above) by raising questions about Internet service providers' ability to speed up and slow down Web traffic. He asked whether there is a "compelling First Amendment interest in ensuring this can't happen and the Internet stays open and accessible." Sotomayor responded that the Internet is "revolutionary" and it affects all areas of the economy and society. But the role of the court is never to make the policy. It's to wait until Congress acts," she added.
