Wow - you bet I'm thinking that do you?Ok....When I had my own phone when I was living at home before the govt broke up the Bell System, I was paying $9 per month for my service.Wow - 20 to 30%!!!Absolutely. Internet access will be loaded up with all kinds of new fees and taxes.Net neutrality = tax revenue mark my words.
These new regs will include mandates that for example guarantee high speed internet( HSI) to the most remote of places. THat will cost a ton of money. And of course the ISP's will be offered tax breaks and subsidies. The cost of which will be passed along to current users.
I would guess the cost of these fees and taxes will add perhaps 20 to 30% to our prices. And of course those unable or those who find ways to game the system will pay less..or nothing. That is the government's idea of "equal access"...
Your guess is as high as that?
No wonder you're upset.
In a year's time after the break up in 1985, my bill doubled....For precisely the SAME service....
I bet you think this new regulation is going to result in lower bills and faster speeds, correct?
Delusional.....
