    This is basically just a war over who pays for the HD video that is already hogging all the bandwidth and will soon overwhelm capacity. Obviously shitheads watching Netflix all day should pay more for internet usage than my grandma who does nothing but check her AOL email. This concept is tyranny or something according to liberals. There's no way ISPs start getting into the minutiae of low bandwidth site access speed which is what's actually important about the internet and what liars are pretending the issue is.

    That said I do hope these disgusting cable companies get obliterated because it's impossible to justify their business practices or profits. They lied and bribed their way into local monopolies and then started raping customers without lube. This industry is a perfectly sickening example of typical modern era business.

    You should move to Portugal or the UK. You can pay extra there to access sites like Facebook and Youtube. You can buy social media bundles and video bundles, in addition to what you're already paying for internet access. Make extortion great again. Guyz, you don't have to follow the Trumpster on everything. Sometims he's wrong. Getting rid of net neutrality was the private vendetta of one of his retarded monkey henchman. Just like getting rid of weed is the vendetta of another of his stupid henchman. These people are certifiable idiots, and should have been fired from their posts a long time ago.


    OBK and I agree. And troomps that follow the Trump corporate line are awesome.
    OBK is the poster child of WTGWT. He shares the same dumb line of reasoning as *gasp* Bernie/Hillary supporters. Luckily Trump is a lot smarter than most of the idiots that vote and I thank him for his service.

    If this was actually about introducing more competition, the ISPs wouldn't be lobbying in favor of it. HTH


    Again I'm not saying that's what this is I am saying competition is the answer to every complaint in this thread

    Getting rid of NN is a step not the finish

    When companies see they can make money they invest.

    Or, when people have their shit taken with impunity, they're less likely to get more shit.

    This is the fucking moron you guys are trusting and supporting to know what's best for the net. Meet Ajit Pai, FCC chairman:

    And then there's this:

    Might be funny if it wasn't actually true. He really is a Verizon shill.

    Verizon and Google both gave up on expanding their fiber networks in the past few years because it was too expensive. Giving Comcast another cock to rape their customers with isn't going to change that.

    I'm hearing bandwidth isn't finite, like water or electricity. Shouldn't be a problem then.

    Does wireless require a fiber network? Again a serious question. I don't know everything I just act like it

    I still want to know why I don't have wireless competition. I said good bye to Comcast in 1999 when I got DirecTV

    For all chintents & purposes, yes. Fiber or something like it is at the ass-end of the wireless towers.
