FCC to vote on scrapping Net Neutrality

[breadisfunny]

It's not bullshit. Without NN people can pay more to get priority traffic execution. With NN we all had to pretend in the fantasy that every packet has the same level of importance.

yes every single argument you have made on these pages has been throughly debunked as grade a bullshit.

I am all for maximizing profit but I don't agree with companies getting the laws changed to unfairly line their pockets.

They have an interesting stat in the movie. When the general public is in favor of legislation, the chance that it gets passed is 30%. When the general public is in against legislation, the chance that it gets passed is 30%. On the other hand, when companies are in favor of legislation then the chance that it gets passed is 80%. When they are against it, the chance that it passes is 0%. Notice a trend? Companies have too much influence on the legislative process and the opinion of the general public has no impact at all.

Of course. General public only has noice. Legislators don't care about that.

Companies have money. Legislators very much care about that.



Which is why the whole save the internet champaign has been doomed to fail from the start. If anyone else than Verizon were running the FCC, there might have been a chance.

With NN, people can get better speeds if they pay more. Nothing is stopping you from getting a business account. With NN, unlike a business account, the limits imposed would be arbitrary. Dictated solely for profit and nothing more.

Honestly, the worst part about that video is how painfully unfunny he is. I kept waiting for the joke and getting confused by the laughter : /

That person must be quite naive if he thinks the anti-NN crowd will watch such a long video with facts they'd refuse to believe anyway.

Wonder what the venn diagram is for people who think that removing all regulation on ISP behavior will spur innovation and those who think trickle down economics works.

That's the problem though. It's not common anymore.

It would look like a single circle.

It never was to begin with.
That name is an example of original British humour.

That's just one lone man among hundreds who'd rather sell out to the telecoms. Not gonna do much I'm afraid.

On pain of knowing you can't answer this and won't even bother trying - but I'll ask anyways...
