"I think a bright line rule that sort of spells out the principles that we believe in, I think the Bill of Rights is a good thing," said Tumblr founder and CEO David Karp.

The blonde woman seems to have the best grasp on the situation.
This kid doesn't have a firm grasp on the Bill of Rights or regulations....he seems to be there to just be a shill for Obama.
They are pushing to require a license to ‘operate’ a website
In other words, you’ll need govt approval (and pay the fees)
presumes the govt’s right to claim jurisdiction to begin with.
The people who are going to be hurt the most are those little snotty-nosed hipsters who own those vegan and other lifestyle websites that cater to liberals. It will also hurt Mom and Pop, conservative, and small business websites too.
“They are pushing to require a license to operate a website”
I’m trying to imagine how they would word such a requirement without allowing countless ways around it.
Liberalism wouldn’t be liberalism without an avalanche of new rules, regulations,and laws with the resulting new restraints, burdens, and taxes on Americans.
Time to learn more about the Dark Net so as to set up a Liberty Net.
Anyone who trusts government to do anything is a brainwashed moron ,brainwashed by the liberal news media.
This net neutrality is obamacare for the Internet, government controlling and ruining the Internet so that we don’t get any information that the democrats/government doesn’t want us to know
I hope the conservatives who stayed home in 2012 because of Romney are happy with result - amnesty, net neutrality. Iran with a bomb, and the total collapse of our foreign policy and our standing in the world.
Especially since anyone with a credit card can rent a virtual server in Holland or Singapore.
The same sort of dumbass that would vote for their own servitude in exchange for a few paltry pieces of silver, damned Libtard Judases.
“I think the Bill of Rights is a good thing”
The CEO of TUMBLR said that?? LOL!
That site is a cesspool of perverts, mental sickness, homo worship, and the proving ground of the language police state.
They likely see the BoR as a “trigger word”.
This video explains the sheer nuttiness of the place.

I hesitate to share any of my alternatives, but they are legion. Unless they require a license to transmit data across absolutely any electronic medium, they will fail. Even if they did that, they would fail.
I have a solution.
JUST LEAVE THE INTERNET ALONE, AS IT IS!!!!
At the end of the day, democrats bring to the table a granular new sincerity that lets them touch base with proactive synergy and robust diversity to push the envelope towards value-added transparacy. This cross-platform benchmarking will bring to the table a milestone come-to-Jesus moment that will peel back the onion, cast the net, drain the pond and boil the frog while drinking the kool-aid and eating your own dogfood. Bright line rule, my ass, democrats don’t think, they just regurgitate old buzzwords...
Goebbels is watching them— and they are dancing around the head of a pin. Scared, willing to bet.
the fees will be on a case by case basis.
meaning, if you’re not aligned properly with the current govt message, your ‘fees’ will go up.
the hipsters will be charged $20/yr with a $100 rebate while sites like FR will be charged $10,000+/mon due to being a politically oriented site.
I happened to catch that segment. Tumblr’s CEO was completely clueless about what it takes to get the internet to a home.
It’s one thing if fiberoptic cable runs down your street already. It is a whole ‘nuther story if it doesn’t.
We live on a private road in PA that only got electricity in the 50’s. Before that people had DC systems that they bought themselves and ran on generators. We don’t have fiberoptic cable on this road yet and we’re about 75 miles as the crow flies from NYC.
And yes, you can get the internet via satellite, but somebody has to pay for maintaining and replacing satellites.
