by the look of his ugly fuq face, they are hoping to charge people for what they watch, despit the fact we pay for services, with that expect to see more people turn to drugs and the population decline at an unimaginable rate as it already has, in my opinion a result of over reaching goverments, its all over, and this person here is one of many who has sealed his own fate.

Let us not waste time here. You sir are an idiot.

Go drop dead you old piece of shit.

I am currently working on a truly free internet.

I want every user to be a repeater node. I am going to use GPS to shape traffic, reducing excessive polling which would retard bandwidth.

It will operate in the license free spectrum. It will promote a speed incentive for stripped down content to reduce clutter and page spam. (advertising)

and the best part. you will only pay for the equipment never for access. the soft switch and all operating code will be open source. Unlimited applications

Net Neutrality rules already exist. The government refuses to enforce them because they want other rules.

They have put together a package of big brother spying and censorship and are calling it net neutrality.

they are refusing to prosecute currently illegal abuses such as load shaping and torrent choking so they can implement draconian regulation under the banner of net neutrality

"This is how the government starts it's controlling manner.."

I don't think you are getting the picure.

It's not the gov. controling the people.

It's the corporations controling the gov. Don't you get it?

In Japan, when they say "cable" means optical cable and they pay much less than US.

Japanese Gov. subsidizes for the infrastructure and keeps the telecom companies small for the fair competition which is totally opposite of US gov. has been doing, allowing them to merge becoming bigger while eliminating the competition for more profit.

And now this.

@nfs924 In the Wild Wild West I can steal your credit cards and rob your bank account and there's nothing you can do to stop me! Is that what you want? A Kleptocracy of internet thieves?

Economic regulation, not Internet Censorship!
