We shall have to go to the “dark” side of the Internet.

Perhaps humans can evolve to have a telepathic capability?

I don’t care if you have a poll saying %99.9999 percent of the
people are against it they are going to do something. Whether
it be imposed by FCC regulation or the Obamas executive pen
they are going to hijack the internet just like they did the
medical industry. An quite possibly with the help of some of
the republicans.

We’ll all have to become very experienced in computer programing in many different computer languages.

I am thoroughly confused. Here is some material I ran across which I think addresses this issue. It seems from this that the issue is whether or not to allow cities to provide fast, affordable broad band service to their residents. Would this eliminate the possibility of choosing a commercial provider, or offer the possibility of cheaper fast public service?

“ALEC, a right-wing think tank that crafts state legislation, is pressuring state legislatures around the country to ban cities from offering broadband Internet access. Nearly 20 states already have laws on the books stopping cities from providing fast, publicly-owned Internet access – and other states could soon follow suit.

President Obama just urged the FCC to make it illegal for states to block cities from providing affordable and fast Internet access–and the FCC is expected to make a decision very soon.

Many perennial funders and members of ALEC, including AT&T, Verizon, Comcast and Time Warner, stand to gain financially from these state laws because they eliminate the possibility of competition from city-run broadband services.

The FCC is expected to make a decision on President Obama’s proposal to protect municipal broadband on February 26. Before then, let’s make sure Chairman Wheeler and the other commissioners know that Americans want more access to fast and affordable Internet service, not less.”

CONFUSION is one tool "the Left" loves to use.
Have you EVER been able to TRUST Obama?
I think NOT !
Call you congressman, and also call his local office, and tell them to VOTE NO!

Part of my confusion is understanding whether this issue described at this thread is the same one as the issue of states preventing cities from having their own broadband service. Is this one issue or two different ones? If they are the same, why wouldn’t FReepers want the cities to be free of their state preventing them from providing service? I thought more local control was one of our issues.

This issue is about taxes and "Big Brother".
The ILLEGAL ALIEN IN CHIEF is wanting control of the Internet to "Fix a Problem" that doesn't exist.
You may trust that EVIL, VILE man, but I don't.
He's going to do the exact opposite of what he says he's going to do.
