The same people that post the memes were the same people that were protesting at Verizon...
Making memes is propaganda and is a political act...

We stay letting people just do what they want to us. People from other countries, that stand up for themselves gotta be laughing at us right now.
Yep. As I said earlier in the thread, there is generally no congestion problem at all. Caps are there as free profit, nothing else

On the bright side all these homeless IG thots and even average girls wont have their heads blown up from all that validation
Itll force people to go outside
Live in the moment instead of snapchatting the whole night at the club (so fukking corny)
DEATH of snapchat (i hate those filters
)
The relationship and marriage might be saved
Everyone wont be as accessible to the next person
On the bad side tho.....
Nuetered and controlled information (the media can put out any propoganda they want without being checked)
Online businesses and marketing will take a hit
No more convenience (applying for college,jobs, googling info, have to use a map instead of google maps)
What yall got?

This is not what net neutrality is about at all..
So happy I left those jokers and went with a local Fiber provider....still going to a dubious billionaire (Dan Gilbert) but he's not been supporting this ruling far as I know.

im just not informed enough to make a decision
heres the thing; i refuse to believe that they're going to blatantly fukk over every american. the ONE THING that the left and the right agree on is that the internet should be as cheap and free as possible
it would be absolute political suicide if they just jacked up everyones internet right in front of their eyes
obviously its not a good thing, its republicans catering to the rich, in this case comcast. i just dont know if i can buy into the sky is falling rhetoric

I’m not sure why you can’t. If you look at ISP power consolidation and the fact that a business will always focus on profit you will see the writing on the wall. Add on the fact that they are very sneaky and methodical with their approach...making sure to take their time in fukking the public..and you have clear bullshyt in the cards for everyone that takes the internet seriously.im just not informed enough to make a decision

theyre definitely just gonna do this by sneaking in fees over time
but lets be honest breh, weve seen people act like overnight comcast is gonna be like "hey, youtube is another 20 bucks a month. sorry
". nobody's doing that

Won't someone just come along and create a new internet??
Agreed, the hyperbole (such as in the OP) distract from the matter at handtheyre definitely just gonna do this by sneaking in fees over time
but lets be honest breh, weve seen people act like overnight comcast is gonna be like "hey, youtube is another 20 bucks a month. sorry
When i got wind of what was on the table, i expected it . Other life essentials, which are much more important btw, are leveled on your income like heathcare education food/water, even adherence to laws. why not the internet ?! Weve not only accepted so much other bullshyt but accepted it as the best the world has to offer. This is another culmination of our ignorant arrogance and racism .and there will be more to come
And im using the term 'our' loosely btw

They aren't going to do that. Its going to hit content creators and the services they use. The traffic one particular user takes up is miniscule compared to someone who uploads to YouTube or streams on Twitch every other day. That is even dwarfed by the amount of servers Twitch/YouTube/Netflix has. So by Net Neutrality falling, ISPs can now throttle those content providers/creators and basically say "Hey, you guys want clearance from our company, you gotta pay."
By doing that, you make Twitch or YouTube the bad guy because THEY will have to pass the buck onto the consumer via a subscription. NOT the ISP. Can you imagine the traffic Amazon gets per day? Per year? Now, imagine the valuation on all of that bandwith....it would be a deal in the hundreds of millions if not a billion.
