For those of you Freepers who think this is a good idea, I just noticed that a 15 year Freeper who insisted that Net Neutrality was a good idea because it meant his ISP would be required to give him better Netflix speeds was zotted yesterday into outer darkness.

Whoever that was, he represents the clueless majority who were more than willing to sign up for this abomination.

You would think a FR’per would have more commom semse if he’s been paying attention the last 6 years. This administration always has a hidden agenda in everything it does. It says one thing while it does another. With the new level of access and control the administration will have over the largest information delivery system in the world bar none, a new level of electronic surveillance and propaganda delivery system will exist as never before. Now the real NWO order can begin. I bet Obama and Soros whet their pants when this went through after they fooled and paid off Wheeler -and the other traitors to get it passed. I can almost hear,”see I told you they were that stupid” passing from Soros mouth to 0’s ears...

That's the main purpose of net "neutrality". For starters, Netflix is 99% drivel. There is some good material and a tiny amount of good new material, but if you want those, it doesn't need to be streamed in HD. Secondly, Netflix and youtube already use up a majority of the bandwidth, net "neutrality" will make it worse. By using up the bandwidth there is less bandwidth for useful purposes. Videos do not need to be streamed, but most of the useless drivel is streamed.

My own case is not too unusual out in a rural area. You can get satellite, cable if you are lucky, DSL sometimes, dialup, WISP and 3G. I have done all of those, but now I am in an out-of-luck area so my main choice is 3G. If someone, just one user, goes on 3G closer to the tower doing streaming HD video, I get nothing. Zero throughput mainly, with an occasional couple of bytes. Useless anyway. Bring on the FCC and they will require my ISP to allow the bandwidth hogging content and probably also require them to upgrade the towers at great expense. There are not a lot of users to amortize the cost across.

Of course the FCC won't do that right away since they would look stupid. But the time is coming when the internet will be run by Netflix. Everything else will be second class, and that is simply because of bandwidth hogging streaming video.

“a 15 year Freeper who insisted that Net Neutrality was a good idea because it meant his ISP would be required to give him better Netflix speeds “

Doesn’t surprise me. I found Freepers who actually support fag marriage.

Yep. biases can distort the truth. Freepers are not immune to this. One has to check out everything themselves.

The FCC will be filing charges against Jim for not providing equal access in 3... 2... 1...
