Just like the net neutrality horseshit

The sky is falling over withdrawal from the Paris climate accord was also horseshit.

You like to give ISPs (utilities) carte blanche power to speed up or throttle traffic flow to websites of their choosing. That's what you like to do.

"ISPs are already violating the Old Net Neutrality Rules"

1) that didn’t happen
2) you like to give the state power over the free market when it’s not required. That’s what you like to do.

AT&T is openly advertising that cellular customers can stream the company’s DirecTV Now product without it counting against monthly data caps. Meanwhile, all of the competing video services like Sling TV, Paystation Vue, YouTube TV, Netflix or Amazon Prime count against AT&T data caps – and video can quickly kill a monthly data plan download allotment. AT&T’s behavior is almost a pure textbook example of why net neutrality rules were put into place – to stop ISPs from putting competitor’s products at an automatic disadvantage. AT&T is the biggest cellular provider in the country and this creates a huge advantage for DirecTV Now. All of the major cellular carriers are doing something similar in allowing some video to not count against the monthly data cap, but AT&T is the only one pushing their own video product.

In November a large study of 100,000 cellphone users by Northeastern University and the University of Massachusetts showed that Sprint was throttling Skype. This is not something that the carrier announced, but it’s a clear case of pushing web traffic to the ‘Internet slow lane’. We can only speculate why Sprint would do this, but regardless of their motivation this is clearly a violation of net neutrality.

This same study showed numerous incidents where all of the major cellular carriers throttled video services at times. YouTube was the number one target of throttling, followed by Netflix, Amazon Prime, and the NBC Sports app

? All of that is good. Why do you hate Competition and the market. OBK is as much of a statist as the HondoBros

What a stupid argument, probably the dumbest argument you have ever made on this forum. How is it good competition to allow ISP monopolies to throttle or speed up traffic to websites of their choosing? It harms smaller competitors. Also what happens when ISPs start getting political and decide to throttle traffic to conservative websites while simultaneously speeding up the flow of traffic to sites like CNN and the Bezos Post?

ISPs are the free market.

OBK and the HondoBros. Two sides of the same statist coin. Just like be proved last week. The more you dig the more you find leftists and the far right are really the same. ANTIFA and the proud boys both love government to control people.

I know that the state creates monopolies. Without they state they don’t and can’t last.

Sounds like you don’t know about monopolies
