Wave goodbye to yet another freedom assumed inviolate.

I suspect content-based censorship will loom. Any time the government regulates or legislates in secret, it never ends well. I guess we will have to promulgate these regulations to see what is in them.

when we're done promulgating we may need to take up pitchforks and hatchets for the march on Washington.

FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler was a lobbyist for cable television and cellular phone interests.

Historically, whenever a revolution or coup starts, the very first action is to take control of all communications - radio, TV. etc. - just saying.

The government routinely f*cks up everything it touches.

Say good-bye to the Internet as you’ve known it.

Obama didn’t like you exchanging political opinions without supervision.

Be prepared for that late night knock on the door.

Once it is done, it is done. There will be no reversing it. The processes, devices, infrastructure, etc., required to pull this off are all ready in place, and being utilized. At this point they are just coming right out with it and shoving it in our faces. Basically saying, “We win. You lose.”

Correct. The liberals will press for “truth” standards, standards that won’t apply to them. Truth will be defined as “what most people believe” just like Global Warming.

They won’t be all that secret once they start being enforced. Then people will bitch and moan about it and do pretty much nothing. Congress will make a lot of noise and then do nothing. We’ve become a nation of wimps and crybabies.

Congress needs to pass a law immediately declaring that all these rules are invalid and repealing them.

If you like your freedom of speech, you will be able to keep your freedom of speech. Period.

If you like your internet, you will be able to keep your internet. Period.

No one will take them away. No matter what.
