Abstract
As an increasing proportion of social life—from education to medicine, business, and national security—becomes mediated through the single medium of the Internet, what are appropriate policies to manage and fairly prioritize the flow of packet traffic through networks? Our critical making exercise will use a car track set as a way to experiment with network management policies and the value choices they imply.
