Urge your local lawmakers to Restore Net Neutrality!
See, I don't agree here. BK's example is something that you'd see from streamers and people downloading files - and yes, that's true to some degree - however, some things (such as loading basic web pages) can be throttled down slightly. Similarly, malicious traffic can be utterly blocked now, which is good.I did see that! I thought it was pretty awesome. They were charging more for burgers, depending on how long you were willing to wait - just like an unregulated internet. Have you seen the Burger King NN advert?

Yeah, didn't see that one coming. I try not to get bent out of shape about NN, after all, this generation is really entitled. Once service providers start being ‘mean’, they'll just whine and whine and whine, and the company would save more money not being jerks than dealing with whiny brats.ikrWow Paddle's here plot twistI did see that!

Breaking: the Senate is about to vote on a resolution to save net neutrality and stop ISPs from ruining the Internet. Starting May 9th, put your website, app, or social profile on “Red Alert” to help sound the alarm. Fill out the form to contact your lawmakers and get everything you need to join the protest!
What's happening?

The US Senate is headed for a mid-May vote on a Congressional Review Act (CRA) resolution to block the FCC’s repeal of net neutrality. Starting on May 9th, and carrying through until the vote, the Internet will “go red” to raise awareness and ensure that lawmakers hear from their constituents, who overwhelmingly support restoring open Internet protections.

Without net neutrality, centralized networks will have an advantage. It really feels like this is just a big ol hullabaloo over nothing. Sorry everyone.

not really, if they abuse consumers, they just get the cities to seize the networks. It's not like the cable companies put their cable on their property. It's on yours and the city's, making it fair game for imminent domain.Without net neutrality, centralized networks will have an advantage. It really feels like this is just a big ol hullabaloo over nothing. Sorry everyone.
