  • @enterjcs I don't know anybody paying more for faster service that is getting it, they only get a bigger bill and the same service, if not slower than mine. It's just a scam.

  • I would advice to wait until there's definatelly a problem. New regulations complicate things for businesses (especially small businesses) and may have unintendet consiquences.

  • OMG. The "CEO's" of the big bad corporations are going to build their models based on, oh no, "DISCRIMINATION"!!!! Agghhhhhh, this can't be happening!!! THE CORPORATIONS WILL CONTROL US!!!

    :)

  • Your really naive!

  • @afridge13 Sarcasm is a good choice for some small-minded person to belittle a very valid and important issue. That's right afridge13: CEO's don't care about you or me, just how much green is showing in their wallet. Look at pharmeceutical companies and banks. They've been robbing people blind for years with their corrupt ways, and are ISP's any different? Not at all. They are asking people to trust them, but there's nothing to hold them to their words.

  • If net neutrality exists now and there fighting to maintain it as it was weaved into the foundation of the internets creation then WHY DO I GET ((THIS VIDIO IS NOT AVALABLE IN YOUR CONTRY))) on you tube And 404 error randomly ???

  • @darkblood626 Copyright infringement. stealing is stealing.

  • @sasdfrom Where your comment came from I dont know, The subject was net neutrality but since you want to talk copyrights I will. From what I've seen on Youtube, copyright is only important when it's an American film in english but when it's uploaded in a foriegn language American film producers don't care but hey piss on them, I have discovered that foriegn films with english subtitles are better than American films in most cases. As far as music goes, I am out of characters remaining LOL

  • @daveusaz1218 It's not surprising I have no idea what your talking about. Why are you replying to a comment made 8 months ago?

  • @sasdfrom Maybe because I just read it today, you think ????????

  • Like ted stevens said: The internet is not a big truck!

  • The truck on a road analogy is utterly stupid. Companies like google are not TRUCKS which go from point a to point b. And the internet is a push-pull medium, not just user pull and provider push like TV. None of us are fooled, fools.

  • We have more to fear from government regulation.

    I am using a satellite internet service right now. It requires no telephone interface, just a two way satellite dish that cost me 300 bucks. The ISP monopoly that is implied here does not exist.

    We do not need the ultimate monopoly of government to protect us from a pretend oligarchy.

  • @kangalanatolian Obviously the monoploy doesn't exist, we'd be fucked if it did. The point of the video is to raise awareness that we're needing to keep a monopoly from happening. ISP's see a golden chance to make a lot of money, and gain control over the internet. sick em' government.

  • Isn't the internet fast enough? I can get streaming high quality video? Why would we need something faster?

    -X

  • No it's not fast enough. There are countries that have 10MBs as the norm. Our shit is as outdated as the 25kbs piece of shit broadband they have in Mexico compared to the rest of the developed world.

  • so wahts your position on that? should...we give up our freedoms to increase things by a few kbs?

    ok...right

  • ok... wrong. Thanks for perpetuating the same old false dichotomy.

  • Well, they wouldn't be able to sort of "block" the content of your website but surely, they can manipulate their "fast" lane to the advantage of big players who literally paying more for better connection which in turn would result in competitions to be unfairly undermind. So at the end, you wouldn't be able to get your "idea" out to create the next Google for example.

  • Time for Internet 2! And they can stay the **** out of that!!!

  • Since we americans are apparantly incapable of voting for politicians who are not corrupt, the sooner we all accept Bush as our own personal savior and allow him into our phone calls and internet, the sooner Jesus will come.

  • Coming soon: BRANDED INTERNET. For example, though "AT&T" or "Comcast" may have a network in your neighborhood, soon you will enjoy choice of branded internet from a different company through their network...just like IPTV. The biggest obstacle is getting our local networks built BIG enough to deal with the bandwidth. It needs to happen FAST. Big questions...How to get it done?...Who PAYS to build it? If Gov't gets involved = FEES FOR ALL (on internet bill)...constant bickering...slow build.

  • Once we let corporations into the internet in the form of advertising, we allowed them to change the internet from the wonderful exchange of information place into the practical exchange of commerce space. We cannot go back, the corporations will never allow it. Our gov't looks toward balancing corporate gain with public interest; but in reality always seems to bow to the former, for eventually (they hope) the public will benefit. In the internet arena the battle was lost long ago.

  • PBS is brilliant at explaining things. I'm going to make my dad watch this report so he understands why I fully support Net Neutrality.

  • Thank you stephenjudge.

  • it says the FCC is there to prevent someone from trying to control the internet.

  • not if the phone companies laws pass

  • if the FCC is there to protect us then we're all fucked

  • What did Jefferson say, "A revolution is good for a country every now and then", or something along those lines.

  • Yes, the RON PAUL REVOLUTION!

    Do vote for RON PAUL in the PRIMARIES (very important to do this -- TO VOTE IN THE PRIMARIES -- this coming January).

    Dr. Paul definitely wants to keep (us and) the internet TOTALLY free...

  • Ron Paul opposes net neutrality.

  • For more videos and lots of background info about Net Neutrality, please go to my myspace-profile. Member of savetheinternet

  • this is one of the best explainations I've seen yet on net neutrality. VERY good video

  • wait..... they say "hands off the internet" and "this is a waste of money" ... but then they say "well the FCC is there to keep it in control"?
