Here it comes! Obama says FCC should reclassify internet as a utility

[Uncensored2008]

Well it is nice of some of the people here wanting to support corporates like Comcast effectively being allowed to:
Redirect Sites (i.e. Comcast could redirect Google to there own search engine)
Block Sites
Place ads anytime they like
.....

You are a moron.

You have no grasp at all of the technology involved - you don't understand the question yet feel that you can dictate the answer.

What you posted above is not just bullshit - but the ignorant rambling of a partisan seeking to micro-manage that which you have zero understanding of.

And this is what it all boils down to - the idea that bureaucrats who have no idea what the OSI model is will enforce rules made by neophytes who couldn't successfully hook up a SoHo router.

 

[Stephanie]

Call your Reps and demand them DEFUND the FCC and all government agencies under this regime of Obama's.

that's the ONLY way to put a stop to them HURTING us and our country anymore than they already have.

So nothing about actual pros and cons to net neutrality.

Maybe we should have defunded the US Army before the last Iraq war... You don't mind being lie to and having thousands of Americans killed but you have suddenly woke up when ISP corporations aren't allowed to be bribed or they aren't allowed to extort businesses for heavily preferred access.

Way to go, kill small business, kill America.

IF it's something Obama wants there can't be a damn thing GOOD about it.
now go make your OWN life. Leave the business if you think they are raping you

HBO is going alacart
ABC & CBS have plans to go alacart
Many other services that are traditional cable only packages are making similar plans to break free of the norm.
Internet prices are dropping in my area because of price wars between the carriers.
Google fiber is offering 1 terabyte connections for the price of a standard cable connection FOR LIFE with each area that it expands to.

Government needs to stay the fuck out of the way and let the market decide.

Um, we are closing in on gigabit speeds on the internet, we don't even have terabit on LANs. 10gb is still highly expensive for LAN use.

On the consumer side, 100mb is just now becoming widely available, thanks to the half TRILLION dollars that Time Warner invested in infrastructure. IF they are permitted to realize a return on that investment, then expect further capital improvements.

If the looters like Pogo, Cowboy Ted, and Shitting Bull are allowed to mooch the profits out of the investment, then expect nothing further from TW.

 

[RKMBrown]

Regardless of how one gets there (high-speed or dial-up) - the Internet should be the same for all who arrive there.

Brilliant Shitting Bull - so we must cap speeds to 56K - the speed of dial up?

AND THIS - is what will happen once the government regulates the internet!

What we need is government to leave us the hell alone.

Why does the internet need to be changed?

Evidently the issue is a total lack of government regulation of it has led to too many people enjoying it and taking advantage of it. Government workers apparently feel the need to fix that.

Uhmmm.. you do realize that US taxpayers funded that half trillion via tax subsidies right?

 

[Uncensored2008]

Either you are just saying random things or this is your way of understanding the topic....by saying random things.

Net Neutrality has everything to do with what you are talking about. They offer these low prices right now. Google fiber offers that right now. Many of the packages are doing their own thing right now.

You like that? Yes. Then why do you want to change it? You still cant seem to understand that being against net neutrality means changing the internet.

One cannot understand a blatant lie. One can accept the lie, or reject it - but a lie is by it's nature incomprehensible.

When you socialists claim that new laws and regulation mean no change, but that leaving things as they are means a change, you are engaging in Orwellian double-think, war is peace, freedom slavery.

Hey I tried to tell you to look it up yourself to find out but instead you refuse to and reject anything I say as a lie.

So you wont look up the information yourself and know that everything anyone tells you is a lie too.

Cant fight willful ignorance man

(Let me start by saying since you like name calling I will continue in the language you understand)

Hey muppet,

I run a small cloud computing consultancy and have 20 years in IT.

Seeing that you fucking dumbshit and lets show you by funny video...


So dipshit, Can you tell me that ISP will not be favouring their own services over competitors.

I want you to tell me your ISP provider and who is paying how much extra to get extra bandwidth, thus discriminating others?

For a bollix like you that should be too difficult unless you are one of those wank stains who only can cum once.

(Any chance not name calling the next time)

 

[ClosedCaption]

Heres the problem.

Say Govt Regulation and repubs are against it without knowing what it means. Say change the internet and repubs are against it because they like the internet.

So they are both for and against net neutrality. Against it because they like the internet, but for it because they fear the words "govt regulation"

 

[Uncensored2008]

And here is example of someone who we thought previously didn't know what net neutrality was about.

Now we know he doesn't know what net neutrality was about.

Another idiot on board... I am actually embarrassed for you.

Ted, You're stupid - it's why you're a leftist.

Your fellow leftist stated that "the experience for a user of broadband and dial-up must be the same."

Do you agree with your fellow leftist? If so, how would that be accomplished? Will you be able to change the laws of physic and create a modulation-demodulation scheme which exceeds 19.2 kilobits per second? Perhaps you can get a looter legislator to rally fellow democrats and pass a directive that the laws of physics are suspended?

You need to Google, Google Fiber. We currently have 1 terabyte speed available where I live.

Ted, you have not a hint of a clue what net neutrality actually is.

You only know that you support your filthy party.

Maybe we should have defunded the US Army before the last Iraq war... You don't mind being lie to and having thousands of Americans killed but you have suddenly woke up when ISP corporations aren't allowed to be bribed or they aren't allowed to extort businesses for heavily preferred access.

Way to go, kill small business, kill America.

Ah yes, it is lack of regulation and bureaucracy that kills small business - you socialists have it all figured out.

Heres what the company CAN do and HAS done. If you want more of this

Look at Netflix bandwidth speed with Comcast. Guess what happened when their bandwidth speed went waaaaay down? Netflix wanted their speed the same as others without being singled out to pay more

Guess what happened when their speed went waaay up? Netflix paid and suddenly the practice of purposefully slowing down sites have been restored.

Why would any consumer fight and say "Let the companies decide if they want us to pay more!!"

Keep internet the same

Oh and I've had 100mb for over a year now

Some carriers here throttle speed, some don't.

Solution A: Switch carriers

Solution B: Give up control to gubmnt.

Everyone can't have unlimited internet speed. It's an engineering / cost tradeoff. We don't need government doing more than what they are supposed to be doing... eliminating the monopolies on the internet. What do we get instead? More monopolies and/or government saying hey we'll be the monopoly.

 

[Mr. President]

Net neutrality is necessary. Dems want it to be a utility and repubs want speed and availability to go to the highest bidder. Americans might have to actually pay attention longer than 3 minutes and get a decision they want out of the deal.
