Vanity: What happens when the phone companies block conservatives from the internet?
Myself | January 8, 2021 | Myself

Posted on 01/08/2021 5:53:56 AM PST by littleharbour

Now that Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, etc., have made it clear they will deny access to their social media monopolies because of personal political beliefs, what will stop the phone/internet companies from denying access to basic phone, internet and cell service. This would result in the shutdown of Free Republic, Parler, OANN, RSBN, Newsmax, etc. And what would stop the banks and mortgage companies from denying access to their services?

With no means of collective communication, and imposition of severe financial consequences on individuals, how would it be possible to have any form of resistance against the media/uniparty/big tech/big corporate/deep state dictatorship?

This may not all happen tomorrow, but this is exactly what the leftists want. And the shutting down of the President's social media links proves that it is possible. Comments welcome.

Phone companies are still regulated as an utility I believe. So it would take State sanctioning of such an effort.

Yep, Comcast is next on their list. It was fun here and on other sites, when we had freedom, but that all ends now, once the courts are packed (thanks to Lin Wood throwing the Georgia elections to the Democrats).

With the State completely controlled by the Dems, anything is possible.

"what would stop the banks and mortgage companies from denying access to their services?"

They have started with businesses already.

US banks and financial institutions have been slowly severing ties with the gun industry

There is an answer to your question, by the way. It would have to be done at the state level, and the states have 2 YEARS to figure that out. After that, the Dems will take power at the state level too...and any hope of resistance or even opposition, is gone.

As to whether that will happen...nope, our side will take too long to figure it out.

Haven’t you heard? Libraries are “too white”. Just wait for the black librarians to come in. They’ll ask the political affiliation of anyone wanting to use the computers and will probably have the ability to monitor the unit with a shutoff switch if the ideology isn’t the correct one.

Library indeed.

The “conservative” majority allowed the blatant theft of the election. Do you think they will do anything to protect the rights of Americans? Kavanagh, Gorsuch and Barrett are as fraudulent as McConnell, Graham, Romney, Pence and Barr.

An automated program will sweep the net, checking out individual visits of undesirable (conservative) websites, current and in the past. Then, we will all have labels attached to our social security numbers (for life). We can expect extra scrutiny, inferior download capability and other products, and certainly visits by the IRS.

Naa, not as fraudulent, just gullible before they didn’t take the time to fully understand the implications of allowing voting fraud to become embedded. The others, yep, for sure!

Get a VPN. Here's a free one: Proton VPN They are a Swiss outfit with Swiss privacy laws. They also have free encrypted email. On top of using a VPN, use a Tor browser. Brave is excellent, plus it has built in ad blocking.

Your internet provider will have no idea what you are doing on the internet.
