https://www.washingtonpost.com/news...-net-neutrality-rules/?utm_term=.74b847ca2a5d Does anyone know how hard this would be to undo? I can see this being and issue that people care about. Imagine this release from NBA.com ( due to the increase in bandwidth fee from ATT from the recent Net Neutrality Ruling, your annual subscription is now $450). Basically the same mud slinging we see when cable and content provider argue over content fees, we'll likely see a version of that now for internet. Also likely, bye free p*rn....
It's because their voting base doesn't care about issues like this, they're too busy screaming at NFL players and the "biased media" to care about actual, tangible issues.
I think they do care, but the GOP has spun this into being about "Government taking over your internets!" I too am interested in how easy or hard this would be to overturn should Democrats take power again. This could be another bullet for campaigns if they use it correctly (They probably won't.)
Liberal Hypocrisy!!! and the red faced men who call them out on it. That is, until they're fired from sexual harassment allegations.
Liberals coming out with their lies early on this one ISPs are private companies and therefore should be able to set the rules regarding how their service is used. Rolling back against net neutrality will end the internet monopoly and improve service.
This is such garbage. Why would companies like AT&T and Verizon, who are overwhelmingly against net neutrality, be in favor of a system that provides for more competition that competes directly with them? You don't know what you're talking about, you just know which side of the political spectrum you're on so you're going to defend anything and everything that side does.
You know who benefits from net neutrality, internet corporation like facebook, Netflix and Reddit etc... so no wonder they are pushing for it so hard. Not only it doesn't benefit the consumer but it hurts them because it will increase prices. Without net neutrality, internet prices will be lowered.
Interesting that the Russian troll has a take on this issue, but at least it's consistent in being completely flawed, counter-factual, and bad for America. I wonder if Putie will still pay for his dial up service, once the rates double? That would be sad. Back to life as a low level flunkie in the Russian mob. Sad!
How do they not control their own service currently? You're seriously saying that telecom providers want to get rid of NN so that they'll have increased competition and lower prices for their services, that is absolutely absurd.
