access tiering

    0.01 sec.
access tiering
Giving network bandwidth priority to Web sites that pay for quality of service (QoS). Web sites owned by, in partnership with, or that have paid a premium to the ISP would receive a higher traffic priority. Their content would ride faster over the ISP's last mile to the subscriber. See ISP and QoS.

The oft-repeated 98 percent figure assumes incorrectly that the relevant geographic market to assess the alleged anticompetitive effects from an access tiering is the local market- that is, it assumes that a content provider is offering content that is particular to a given locality and therefore requires access to a broadband service provider's subscribers in a given locality.
