Data Caps and or Throttling somebody unless they pay more for Bandwidth is a Scam, Seems like usual they want people to pay more for less.

A Fetus is not a person under the 14th amendment.
Christians are Forced Birth Fascists against Human Rights who indoctrinate and groom children. Prove me wrong.
Something is disingenuous about that electricity analogy, but I'm too lazy to put more thought into it.
It's not an accurate video but there's a lot of hysteria about not having government mandated net neutrality.
The Internet has done fine without the government mandating that stuff.
Look, worst case scenario, make your own ISP, open up the competition and ISPs that offer a shitty service (high cost poor access) get phased out.
If you're so concerned about evil stuff on the Internet, HIRE PEOPLE TO START PATROLLING the damn dark web, lots of evil illegal shit there, but the government shouldn't have direct powers over the Internet.

For the past century, all IT advancement has been towards faster and yet cheaper.
The Internet will be fine. Maybe put cops to patrol the dark web like they do the STREETS or something if you're so concerned about immoral things on the Internet.

People fix things. Go start a "proper ISP", hell, I'll even invest in it if it looks semi-decent.
can't wait for YouTube to pull their channel down and hear the salt that will cause. "but muh free market!"
I want to know what you think is worse:
1. some random ISP having crappy rules (you still haven't explained what exactly has any ISP done that warrants government regulation of the ENTIRE Internet)
2. child porn and assassins on the dark web
Then tell me why your priority is number 1 and literally no word about nr. 2.
I don't have a problem with companies shutting down right-wingers like Alex Jones as long as they are honest about their leftist bias as a company. But of course they're frauds, if people had known from the start what their bias was, would it still be as popular? Probably not. Facebook, Google etc. rose to fame masquerading as something they were not, open platforms. That's fraudulent in my view.
Hopefully the truth is out now and they will fall soon.

Taking down child porn is policing, not regulation. No different than a cop on the street witnessing a crime in progress and stopping it.
A full scale regulation of the Internet would be something like a curfew in real life and some streets being off limits to you even if you haven't been proven to have done anything wrong.
You know they are already going after those sites, right? I think you just don't have any idea how the dark web works.
It also has fuck all to with NN. But hey, if you hate regulations that will benefit you, nobody is stopping you from expressing that hate. I mean, unless you're a CEO of one of the big ISPs.
You are confusing the internet, with social media. That’s why Infowars.com is not banned... until your ISP chooses to ban them, because “government enforced” net neutrality, is gone. Social media cannot block independent parts of the internet, while ISP sure as hell can.
Yes, which is something protected by net neutrality, but has nothing to do with social media.A full scale regulation of the Internet would be something like a curfew in real life and some streets being off limits to you even if you haven't been proven to have done anything wrong.

Policing because of Law and Regulations.
Which didn't happen with Net Neutrality.A full scale regulation of the Internet would be something like a curfew in real life and some streets being off limits to you even if you haven't been proven to have done anything wrong.

They're not going enough.
Here's an option: Don't spend any resources on telling ISPs what to do about net neutrality, divert all those resources to a stronger police presence on the dark web.
Government doesn't have unlimited money. It should spend what it has on its main functions: defense and combating the initiation of aggression/fraud
