Dutch net neutrality passes Lower House - Senate confirmation expected

After a bizarre 24 hours in which the Dutch Socialists managed to vote for the wrong set of net neutrality amendments (hey, this stuff is hard!), the net neutrality and cookies law finally passed this evening. It basically outlaws blocking services - like Skype - on fixed and mobile networks. More details once it becomes law...as @T_regs states: "For avoidance of doubt, NL "Tweede Kamer" (2nd chamber) voted Bill 32 549 and amendments; "Eerste Kamer" (1st chamber) needs to confirm"
