Re: What is Net Neutrality

[geandily]

Wow you sure look like an expert on economics, I bet you read a few pro net neutrality websites at least twice

Please don't try to explain something you haven't spent more than 4 hours researching both sides of.

Net Neutrality isnt "an arguement" its the idea that nobody should have an advantage providing content to views over others based on how much money they pay the phone companies. Look up the internet consumer bill of rights act.

I'm so late getting to this video. Thanks for expanding my mind. I really didn't know what net neutrality was.

Personally I desire to have the freedom to push any properly packeted tcp/ip data over my wire.

I paid my connection fee. It's none of the business of my ISP to see (charge) what and to who I'm connecting with.

So, everybody wants to make as much money as possible for themselves. Interesting...

[deadlogic]

that is always the case. but if the telcos/ISPs win, we'll end up paying more money as well.

[burnvictim77]

No, actually, nothing would change. Because 'net neutrality' would be the change in policy, not the other way around.

[bacterya000]

man, thanks for the post, really helped me understanding the whole thing!

About this, there arent any laws about net neutrality right now, so that if ISP's wanted to do all the bad things mentioned in the debate, then they would have already. So why is it working well right now, without the additional laws?

Theres also the porn thing. Should weird porn sites have the same "right to equal bandwidth" as google at each isp? what more rules and laws and regulations and comittees and departments are going to be "necessary"?

[MrFats0]

Right now there asking companies like MS to pay the brunt of the cost so that cost to us much less. Net Neutrality will cause us to pay much more. Someone has to pay for the bandwidth its not free.

[MrFats0]

Nobody seems to look a head. In the future the net will change to more of an interactive tv just like when it went from text only to how it is currently. My point is that bandwidth we use now is small potatoes compared to the future net we will have to pay a more money for more bandwidth. like when we went for dailup to dsl to cable. So Net Neutrality bill is useless like most bill/laws like that are.

[davidnode]

very patient and thorough explanation, I hope there are more responses, great response

[chompy44]

your explanation is too complicated. Its all about money. Pay to play baby.
