chris yu, a professor at the university of pennsylvania, has written a book on this subject, that the internet is not neutral, and this for example sayings on what happens between isps and content companies is really misplaced. >> guest: well, i think we all know who have been an internet service provider that we do business that in most cases we have one, many some cases two that we have to choose from. that gives your internet service provider a significant amount of power. and what that means is if you are relying on them to get access to the internet, they might have competing applications or content that they would rather prioritize over what you can find in the, you know, the vast expansion of the internet. so their role and the market power that they possess is a big concern for consumers. >> host: brent skorup, when you say it's not neutral now, what do you mean by that? >> guest: so the internet is, of course, a global network of networks and covers the entire globe, and there are these, they're called backbone providers, these fiber providers that exchange traffic all around

i did a talk at university of pennsylvania with ian lustick who is one of the leading analysts of of israeli demographics. and i cited a figure of about one million israelis who are living abroad which is about 14% of the population. higher percentage than maybe of the population of mexico or sri lanka, and he put the figure at closer to 600,000. it's hard to determine, and either way that's a very large percentage of a population that is living abroad. there were ads, you know, when i was in israel on tv all the time that showed an american flag fluttering in the background with money falling from the sky, and it talks about getting you a visa to get to the u.s. and live the good life. most israelis want to move to the u.s. for economic reasons. they are kind of lab rats, just as the palestinians are in a great neoliberal project which has completely hollowed out their middle class and deprived them of, you know, any opportunity. young israelis are determined to finish i've seen polls showing that a majority are open to the idea or determined to move abroad. but one of the most fasc
