I always got the impression that "net neutrality" was one of those things that did the exact opposite of what they told us it was going to do.

Confused...I thought NN was allowing throttling some over others to make it “governmentally fair”...so repealing what Obama did would remove such limits, right?

Can someone explain, as the title of this story is purposefully confusing. Orwell would understand.

It’s kind of interesting that the DOJ wants to block the ATT-Time Warner merger because cause it gives a distributor too much control over the way it treats content, but the FCC wants to give internet companies more control over how they treat content.

This is a terrible idea. Ending net neutrality will lead to increased censorship and government/corporate control of the internet.

No conservative who understands the issue can support this. Unfortunately, clueless old boomers will go along with ending net neutrality, on specious “free market” grounds, then will complain when the government and liberal corporations make it hard for them to access right wing content.

So the Ed Rendell Demmicraps who run Comcast can muck-up your connection to OANN. No thank you.

Any Freeper who is for “net neutrality” should be drummed out of the Corps.

Let’s make this crystal: Net neutrality is what we’ve always had. Obama didn’t create it. Neither did Bush or even Gore (lol). Net Neutrality ensures that liberal ISPs don’t put a choke on sites like this. Sure it protects leftie sites too, but don’t let that distract you. The globalist corporations would like nothing more than to put a throttle on sites they like and dislike, for whatever reason. Obama didn’t create it. He only ensured that it continued. He may be the devil, but that was one good thing he did. Anybody who tries to tell you different is a tool of the establishment.
