Markey Pushes New Net Neutrality Regulations - HR 3458

[screwopenborders]

Not sure if you realized it but Net Neutrality has been around since the 90s. Using the word "regulations" is a mis-nomer that the trash in washington has manipulated the right into thinking it was bad.

[derekHSmith]

You are Smart AND Beautiful! Marry ME!

[screwopenborders]

@derekHSmith Unfortunately she isn't smart on this issue. Apparently we've had net neutrality in place since the internet got big in the 90s.

[bluetech7753]

what I would like to see is more affordable Internet service access and a speed regulation of no less then 4 megabits per second this is a must since HD is now standerd.

[bigglebunny]

This person is a shill, stirring up fear of government takeover and lies about what net neutrality is, in favor of Net Bias (you may only access the information that ISPs want you to access, and you have to pay whatever they tell you to pay in order to do it). If you want to be told which sites you may or may not visit, blast away in favor of censorship. If you want to keep civil liberty and access to the global network that you paid for with tax $, then support net neutrality.

[PirateoftheTouYube]

Actually our current system IS net neutrality....so they are not changing anything. They are proposing a law so that companies could not all decide to start doing this.

[seanotube85]

What EXACTLY are they trying to regulate here is my number one issue.. Are they planning on regulating what you can or can't do on the internet, or are they planning on regulating how much Comcast and Verizon have power over what you can or cannot do on the internet? Because I KNOW that Comcast and Verizon recently got a whole lot more unnecessary power on allowing how many people can go to certain websites at a time. This affects net neutrality negatively. It was working fine BEFORE that bill.

[enorris2882]

please, don't trust comcast, at&t and verizon!! they will eventually control the internet...not the GOVERNMENT!!!!

[ChristianMuslum]

How long are we going to let the scum of the earth take whatever they want?

[moneyman10k]

net neutrality regulation is important because america is capitalism gone awry, and people aren't as powerful as big business regardless of what theory thought. most places in the states have one or two ISPs, no more. but is this bill the right one? maybe not. not if it can be used backwards to hurt the open internet like you suggest. the best thing we can do is learn and fight for what we believe in. good work and keep fighting for liberty.

[zenophon007]

HOTNESS!!!

[DCUPtoejuice]

McCain the idiot accidently did something right with the Internet Freedom Act.

[scrubrush]

"As the most participatory form of mass speech yet developed, the Internet deserves the highest protection from government intrusion." --- Three judge panel ruling to the FCC on internet freedom - 1996.

[goffnett]

Amen to that! These clowns are pulling stuff out of the closet for the all out onslaught. Firearms, Free speech, and what in the world is the Whitehouse doing attacking ONE news agency? The most successful news agency at that. What a coincidence. These sissy tyrants are asking for lead in their diet, they believe they have convinced the American people of their ways because everyone is politically correct. Time for us to do away with the gay chatter and start speaking like patriots.

[picklebarrels]

ISPs like Comcast are saying, "Well, net neutrality would stifle investment and innovation." while saying out the other side of their mouth, "But we'll never engage in traffic shaping on a large scale! We promise!"

Has it ever run through that blonde head of yours that the vast increase of users and incredible explosion in applications in the past couple years might be a factor in the initially slow adoption of traffic shaping? That the amount of money now involved is a less trivial factor?

[wilatemodel]

she better not come after me 4 child support damnit!!!

[sonygvf]

you too....!

[wilatemodel]

LMAO!!...i was wondering if anybody had a sence of humor out there...!!!..btw....is she EVER gunna take her top off?......

[sonygvf]

haha some of us do...no she probably won't.

Late Model, what track? I used to run Rookie class at Lanier in Ga.

[wilatemodel]

slinger,madison,rockford,the dells....scoot wimmer said lanier reminded him a lot of the dells....

[sonygvf]

yep, big turns short straights...

[wilatemodel]

slinger is the shit,.....super fast....

[sonygvf]

cool...

[wilatemodel]

check it out,..they have some videos on here...

[sonygvf]

Thanks, will do...Lanier doesn't have much of a video presence here.

[wilatemodel]

lol.....i noticed...there is a excellent in car where we were track champs 2 yrs ago,..the in car is of the guy we beat,...

[wilatemodel]

check out jason erickson sept 5 2009 here on youtube,...its the shit....our home track...till we went 2 slinger..

[MissSpringyness]

... Because, like. Here there used to be only ONE internet provider, i think in like 2003 or something like that -- & we're still using them, & they're a not-uber-known one either. Now, there's bound to be plenty, I'm sure.

[MissSpringyness]

The internet was made, and the the guy made no profit. And practically everyone in developed countries has access to it, even if it's at an internet cafe or something like that.

I stumbled on this with youtube related vids ness. And I don't think that this Restricting the Internet thing is happening over here in the UK .. Well, the trying-to of it.

But it's the internet guys trying to get morrre morre money, now that there's more internet companies. Too much competition between them ...

[louis12346]

Do not worry we still have freedom of speech as long as your in a Free Speech Zone. any thing else is Hate Speech you Racist homophobes

[joe80dman]

@GGGG4G: On top of that, he has the audacity to call it the Internet NEUTRALITY Act. WHAT'S THAT SUPPOSED TO INFER? Does Markey intend to neuter Freedom of Speech? Does he actually believe he has the authority to deny, We the People, a fundamental right? He's obviously following the marching orders from the NWO elite, who probably promised him a bid at the White House someday, or a seat on some court bench, etc., if he was a good lapdog, and did what he was told.

[j4m6utube]

Must be nice to have 4 providers to choose from.

[derekdamnit]

am i supposed to take her seriously........all i am thinking is wow i wanna do her

[wilatemodel]

is this chick EVER gunna take her top off?.....jeeze.....

[Yakko77]

Up is down.

Wet is dry.

Black is white.

What's yours is THEIRS!

[StoneColdSteve98]

Joe 80, you obviously don't know what a Marxist is, everyone in the NE should get a rope? Go fuck yourself you prick, you are an idiot.

[freepress666]

well every once in a while, they throw us a bone, but most of the time they do what ever they want despite what we the people want, and what they do pass, you can bet its to screw us again, thanks for your work to inform us as to what to expect next, I think?

[joe80dman]

Markey should be impeached for violating oath of office. What's with those lunatics in the Northeast US who continue to vote Marxists into office? Get a rope!

[Boratt69]

This November 5th help us promote!!

FOR LIBERTY!

[shooter348]

"the internet freedom preservation act"

"the patriot act"

Should we just start assuming that the ACT will do the opposite of what the title implies?

[OgeronimonominoregO]

I think we need gov't regulation to make sure we all eat daily.

Yeah, about a 1,000 page bill ought to cover all the details. The gov't will contract with the phone companies (who will have spent millions lobbying for the bill) to give everyone in the US a friendly phone call daily to remind them to eat.

Those without phones will be given a new one, but their old phone will have to be destroyed (Cash for Callers).

And we'll need to print another $ Trillion just to be on the safe side.

[arcanekrusader]

i want that.

sex me, shelly roach.

[unameitltd]

saying regulation rulemaking is needed to keep somthing that works well now without rules is no different than saying you should DRINK POISION TO KEEP YOU BODY POISION FREE.

ITS JUST NWO DOUBLESPEEK!!

[theropingeffect]

Markey's just jealous because he still has dial-up.

[DeadlySoul123]

keep it up your doing a great thing

[mayhem1226]

I saw we burn Markey alive

[mayhem1226]

time warner want's all the business.....the govt' is afraid of what's ahppening and the people taking back their power.

[bearcat648]

Shelley, I don't trust legislation either. But the whole discussion should be framed in the context that telcos & cable companies are to some extent coercive monopolies in highly regulated atmospheres, much like power utilities. My outlook is anarchist/libertarian, and I wish other libertarians would see this. What we really need is comprehensive deregulation of the whole system.

Thanks for your response. :-)

[BreakTheMatrix]

agreed. think that will ever happen?

[Cleancutchaos]

Not if you keep doing what you are doing! And if it does, wouldn't you think another communication tool would rise rather quickly? I mean the paper, radio, and t.v. were all somewhat free media when they started before slowly getting regulated right? I really hope that if this turns ugly, it spawnes a tool even faster and more direct than the internet! Progress is what we do best, ya?

[bearcat648]

I hope some day it does. :-) Has anyone ever proposed or outlined a comprehensive program for deregulating the telcos and cable companies? I would love to see it.

Shelley, thank you so much for the exchange and for your channel. What I really like is how you combine an organic, holistic outlook with a libertarian perspective. Awesome!

[abntemplar82]

of course there is a need for regulation, you dont honestly think the governement and their puppet masters want we the people to have a true free speech do you? i mean its not like its a god given right or anything...

[ubetcha13]

they must take control of the only free press that's left

[Leonidus82]

This Congressman Markey, I don't care if he's a democrat or a republican. He needs to get shot in the face!

[ubetcha13]

way to end up on a watch list!

Oops since I wrote to you I guess me too.

[sonygvf]

Great job Shelly, keep telling it the way it is.

[Michael7893]

good job keep it up.

[JiveDadson]

Paging George Orwell. George Orwell, please pick up the white courtesy phone.

[jeffreymharmon]

super interesting! Great work

[rayme4raw]

Net Neutrality is bad if it allows the government to create regulations. Government would be more restrictive than the companies that depend on customers to generate a profit and would have more to lose than the government if they put limits on their product.

[BLLAARRRGG]

Government has to try and control all aspects of our life's and now the internet too. Tyrants.

[biped19]

This is a just an Orwellian way of titling a bill that does the opposite.

"A regulation to make the internet free!"

Yeah right...

I wonder what "provisions" they slipped in, like allowing the president to turn off the net whenever he has an itch in his ass.

[Kras3169]

I think Congressman Markey needs a swift kick in his pussy!

[sonygvf]

Does he really have a.....oh never mind.....

[Arginine88]

what the hell is wrong with that Jew? oo wait I could get in trouble for that comment? If he gets his way?

[kmg501]

This is how they always do it. Bureaucrats collude with big business to make you pay more. They have been doing this to us for over 100 years. Please read the following and understand how the public is used and abused and why the federal govt must be drastically reduced in size, scope and power.

THANKS SHELLY XOXOX

[nephozo]

internet is information

control information , control the world

[Sandmantheman02]

simple regulate and then TAX

[subjer0]

Independent media is vital to a democracy. Too bad our democracy is an illusion, because the Mainstream media is owned by only six corporations. You know the system is corrupt when the CEO of Disney is also a chairman for Halliburton, you know the private contractors making money off the war in Iraq.

[TJMonster51]

The united states is a republic. Not a democracy. In a republic, the people decide what we want and the elected statesmen push our agenda's. In a democracy, we vote for on who we want to dictate us. If we would just stick with the republic idea that we ARE, we wouldn't have these problems to begin with.

[theaggravator]

So the Gov pretty much gives away something America built to the rest of the world, does pretty much nothing to help with spam and foreign scams, runs every program they ever touched into bankruptcy and now they want to regulate it? The U.S. Government, especially under Democratic control, is so full of shit.

[JSenator06]

Blohard Markey! Would the sane peole of Massachusetts please get rid of him!

[WDeet]

We need an Internet Czar!  Yea, right!

[cowboyjim442003]

Nice to have you on the Peoples side Shelly, keep the good videos coming!

[davidnightingale]

Regulations protect monopolies of big corporations. News papers started as lots of pamphleters. Then it was consolidated and controlled, so now we have the "free press" yippeeeeee.

[merryxster]

Great info, thanks.

[ENJOYOURMATRIXX]

this is so classic:

PROBLEM, REACTION, SOLUTION

PROBLEM: Internet provider throttling traffic

REACTION: Internet neutrality must be preserve

SOLUTION: more control and regulation applied to internet by big brother!

[ENJOYOURMATRIXX]

good info thanks

[MadBadVoodo]

Five Stars!!

[Snowflake70]

I'm LOCK STEP with you Shelly !

DN Mushroom Club meeting Crescent City CA

Tereros across from the Fairgrounds

8 October (Thursday) 6 PM

Would love it if you came.

[VictorTheGr8]

I can't remember a time in my life when I have had the government so in my face! This is fascism/corporatism straight up. However...I hope they keep doing it. They are screwing up and biting off more than they can chew.

[dlucas90]

Regulated free speech = oxymoron

Unelected FREE world government = oxymoron.

Regulated counterfeit money = oxymoron

There is a pattern forming here.

[romeno182]

fight the government fascists.. all they want is control over you..

[Steenville]

New regulations, commisars Soviet style, bailout packages for the criminal bankers, more powers for the Federal Reserve, short selling restrictions, etc etc.. it is great to see people speaking out against this developing fascism- thank you standing up for those who are not able to fight, Shelly.

[VexRiot]

The Net Neutrality bill is another way for government to start taking over the internet.

NET NEUTRALITY" WILL END NET FREEDOM

ww w.truthtellers.o rg/alerts/netneutralitywillend­freedom.h tm

[PatriotsRepublic]

What needs to happen is that all regulation "which is unconstitutional" needs to be gotten rid of. The FCC is unconstitutional. The clause "to regulate commerce" meant to keep commerce regular... it DID NOT MEAN CONTROL!!! Of course, for you libs out there who want nothing more than to only hear your point of view voiced and want nothing more than for people to do everything you say... control is exactly what you need... so you will always argue for complete control over all our lives.

[PressForFreedom]

Always nice to see you Shelly, we already have neutrality on the net, that's what they hate.

[ihearbs25]

want a champagne manager :)

[chuckbear]

The net needs to be free YOU CAN REGULATE INFORMATION!

[bearcat648]

I'm sorry, Shelley, but this is something I am going to have to partly disagree with you on. While Net Neutrality laws are probably not needed at this point, please keep in mind that the telcos in particular are as highly regulated and corrupt as the banking industry. Regulations in this area may be needed in the future unless we undo all the fundamental regulation that keeps them from being a free market.

[SteveXnycperformance]

you must be speaking of banker laws. the supreme law of the land is the constitution. which one are you?

[tzankich]

So replace the corrupt companies (regulated by free choice) with even more corrupt government control (regulated by sheer power)?

[bearcat648]

Tzankich, you should actually respond to my point. My issue is that coverage of this issue is one-sided, which is the corporate trap that libertarians sometimes fall into. Telcos are not free-market, so you either have to make them free-market or regulate them. Same with Fannie & Freddie. AT&T was already caught in censorship of an anti-Bush song by Pearl Jam in 2007.

I want to make them free-market. I think most people here don't get the issue, and want to cheerlead.

[BreakTheMatrix]

bearcat648: I guess it comes down to temperament. Personally, I don't trust Congress + their corporate sponsors to enact legislation that isn't slanted in favor of the corporate sponsors. Our current system is one in which big corporations own politicians, and work with them to craft legislation. Look at Monsanto's lobbying and the effect it's had on the biotech industry, for example. So am I ever going to give govt the benefit of the doubt? Nope. That's how we got in this mess.

[tzankich]

bearcat, what do you mean exactly?

[bearcat648]

Hey tzankich, I mean that this not a question of govt vs companies. The cable companies and telcos are highly regulated and work with govt. We had effective Net Neutrality until 2005. We probably don't need it now, but if we didn't have it in 1995, the internet today might look more like interactive television .

[bearcat648]

If you want to be free market, that is awesome, but then you have to accept that you are either

a. going to have to deregulate the whole system (preferable), or

b. put regulations into place at different times to make up for dislocations caused by the current regulations, as it is no longer a free market.

Unfortunately, this is very similar to what you have to do with banks today.

Net Neutrality has to be viewed in this context.

[psbyowner]

they always gotta hid their true intentions behind protectionist bill titles. im done with politicians; they need to tarred and feathered, hung, castrated and crucified.... not necessarily in that order.

[eurohim]

I agree 100% Shelly.

Oh, and I'm an IT expert, so yay for me (since you mentioned it).

[picapauengracado]

Ain't broke it, don't fix it.

[SteveXnycperformance]

but we can make it better/improvise on it. Its not fixing it, its just maintanance. get raid of goverment spam/virus.

[bc5620]

good one Shelly
