"...according to a new study by NETCompetition.org, a site committed to Net Neutrality "pro-competition Internet forum funded by broadband companies.""

"According to the study, Google used 16.5 percent of all U.S. consumer Internet traffic in 2008, and that share is estimated to grow to 25 percent in 2009 and 37 percent in 2010. Why? According to the study, because Google's search bots regularly copy every page on the Internet, some as frequently as every few seconds, and Google's YouTube streams almost half of all video streamed on the Internet."
