Net Neutrality

[Speaker to Animals]

How could this affect you?

Imagine having to pay an extra $10 per month so that Netflix streams fast enough to watch movies. Or that an app creator needs to pay AT&T millions of dollars so that new customers can actually access it on the company's wireless network.

These accessibility issues are the kinds of things that net neutrality proponents theorize could happen without regulations. Once major companies are able to start negotiating with each other over how data flows across the internet, there's no shortage of ways to pass higher costs on to consumers while scuttling innovation.
Why do we need the FCC for net neutrality?

This is a key component to the net neutrality debate.

Net neutrality proponents argue that when internet providers are allowed to do whatever they want, they will inevitably violate net neutrality in order to make money from companies like Google and Facebook, which have plenty of cash and would love to tilt the playing field in their direction.

Opponents of net neutrality regulation argue that the internet has done just fine without aggressive governance, and that the FCC's rules limit investment (a point that has not proven true).

What semblance of a free market we had in that industry is over until Congress actually does their job and implements some regulation. Other than that, our only hope is for the Supreme Court to squash this ridiculous notion that the FCC chairman has some special power to preempt state laws.

This order wouldn't bother me much if it weren't for the inherent power-grab. I am frankly shocked that some of you would defend the notion that an unelected FCC chairman claims the power to preempt state laws. This merchant mindset runs deep, apparently.

Ain't nothing traditional, conservative, or right wing about being a money-grubbing little whore.

Wait. You're the faggot that told me that censorship was coming. I told you it would as well. So what happened? You want NN back for what purpose? Why the fuck are you so emotionally invested in Netflix?

I am not in favour of the US government having any control over the internet, whether that be by FCC, FTC, or NSA, so go ahead and blow it up, that's fine by me, I'd like to hope that it would take our CRTC down with it, because I don't want the Canadian government monkeying with the internet neither, but I'm not going to get my hopes up.

The craziest part of all this is that it's likely the absolute most stupid thing Donald Trump has done since swearing into office. He for sure lost significant support amongst the electorate. He violated his campaign platform by putting the American people second to a pack of merchant whores. He even shit all over the concept of a free market.

He's not going to win in two years unless he actually delivers his promises and, thus far, he's doing the opposite. He's helping out big businesses fuck over the American people while doing jack shit about the demographic invasion of our nation.

These merchants are absolutely killing the American right. These people need to be purged, including Trump if necessary. This is why democrats can claw back into power, and they will if this kind of thing continues.

Donald Trump gained literally NOTHING from this. These merchant cunts will still stab him in the back in two years, and he probably just handed them the ability to throttle most pro-Trump messages online. These people are democrats. All of the merchant class fucks that had a stranglehold on the GOP do not belong there. They just play second fiddle to the democrats to get their pro-corporate agenda pushed while keeping the democrats ultimately in power.

There's no dividing line between things like this and the open borders. It's all for big business at the cost of the average American. People like Bill Krystol are probably toasting Trump right now.

Oh, it's coming cupcake. I am going to laugh in your face when alt-right sites get throttled into oblivion. It's going to be hilarious when the marxist "fact checkers" declare dissenting news as "fake" and then the ISPs throttle the shit out of that content ostensibly to protect their customers.

Go subscribe to Bill Krystol's twitter page and celebrate with him.

[TheReal_ND]

Do you not know that the alt-right has been jumping around already to put out their content? I thought you were aware of that listening to Rebel Yell. It's not even a big deal you just go where people want your money.

[Penner]

HA HA HA HA

Keep on shilling for the merchant class, then. Seriously, this is the one time you had me thinking you might have had a point with that other stuff. If they can convince even you to shill for them.. wow.


This business of fucking over an entire nation of people for some shekels is merchant values. There's no honor in it anywhere. Not even any principle. It's just chasing shekels and fleecing other people in the pursuit therein.

[TheReal_ND]

You sided with MSM spam bot Penner.

That's how far you have fallen.

I would say you could redeem yourself but knowing your posting behavior you won't

[Speaker to Animals]

All those white rust belt voters are wonder why the fuck to even bother next time around.

This was fucking stupid as hell.

[Penner]

What I do not understand is why some people won't trust government but will trust corporations that tried to fuck them over in the past? I think maybe we should study this phenomenon of not self-preserving. When it comes to government they are like, "ah, we can't trust them" but when it comes to corporations its always, "well, the free market will help us. Even though Comcast tried to fuck us over I would still trust Comcast." Overall, it's not like society at large will benefit from this either. Instead, this will fuck everyone and everything except for the ISPs that lobbied for it.


Do they not realized that big corporations are just as bad as big government?
