    Even though some people would like to paint this as the end of the world as we know it pretty soon there will be a new breakthrough and this shitt will look like who controls the tin cans and strings.

        Let me know how much your bill goes up in 6 months.  

        Also I'll make sure to PM Stan to see what additional costs will be tacked on to this board as well.

        Why?  This is just reverting back to the way it was before.

                  Its not unfounded. Whenever dereg happens bills go up. We'll see how it plays out.

                  washington state has come out and said they are going to enforce neutrality in their state. A couple more states follow suit and companies arent going to navigate state regs that vary. That'll shut this down

                        Good, but it's more likely they'll just say fu¢k Washington state and then some Podunk hipster internet company will try to pick up the slack and realize that it's not that easy to provide unlimited bandwidth to data hungry streaming enthusiasts

                          Anyone with a brain understands it's just reverting back to the way it was before the Obama ruling changed in in 2015.  It's just crying from the lefties because it's undoing an Obama ruling.  Shmuck you lefties!

                                    "It helps when titanic, media-driving Silicon Valley companies like Google and Facebook, Netflix and Amazon spend tens of millions of dollars pushing the Net Neutrality rock up the Hill.

                                    Big Left Coin buys lots of sound and fury – no matter how much nothing it actually signifies.

                                    And why did the Silicon Valley Giants spend these millions? Because Net Neutrality is the government mandating that the Silicon Valley Giants receive billions of dollars worth of free bandwidth from the ISPs.

                                    Their coin – was a cronyism down payment. But a tiny fraction of the government rewards they were set to reap.

                                    And, of course, their cronyism would inevitably, inexorably mean We the People would spend exponentially more for our bandwidth. Because ISPs have only two sets of people to charge – the Silicon Valley, and us. So Net Neutrality says we pick up the Valley’s titanic bandwidth tab – and thereby augment their titanic profits."

                                        And did read some of the shady Sheet that was starting to take place before?  Now it's just going to be all out in the open.   You ask why and I can't tell if it's genuine or you're doing your persona.  (which I might add has been pretty funny lately)

                                        I'm all for personal liberties and free market, but I also realize said free market can be manipulated.    This isn't Apple saying they might not have been able to launch the first Iphone with neutrality.  Suppose this board now owes extra monies to 'X' ISP...   for the exact same service they're providing now. Or worse, toss in a surcharge and if you don't pay they'll unnecessarily throttle your service.     Would you pay a mechanic extra to do the same work on your car? Hell no.   

                                        What scares me the most are the ones who believe this does nothing.  If it doesn't do anything than why was it necessary, rhetorical.  So once that penetrates the bubble the next question is who does it benefit? Again those drinking the Kool Aid probably go to "small business and the middle class" cause that's the Trumpettes war cry.  Last time I checked small business and the middle class haven't donated MILLIONS to the same representatives that voted for this.  Finally as this illustrates how the money of corporate america shapes policy to their benefit we will get, dude that's how you create jobs.  So I guess as my internet TV options dwindle to what company will kick back the most many to Spectrum I'll be thankful my neighbor will get paid $12/hr to be a customer service rep.

                                        It scares the hell out of you...that you'll have a slightly harder time...streaming internet television.

                                          Yeah, why should anybody be worried about receiving the advertised service on the product they pay for, right?
