He’ll have it on rushlimbaugh.com tonight, I’m sure. He was fired up on the issue, and how so many people are stupidly in support of Net Neutrality.
WRONG! I do NOT have to pay an overage fee until I downloaded MORE than a TERABYTE in 30 days. I work from home and use the computer at least 8 hours a day and don't even come close to that limit. The highest month I've ever had was 320 GIG
They pay an overage fee the second they collectively pass 85 GIG.
TWO totally different prices. One charges HIGH rates for MOBILITY ( 4G Cell service..) the other is much more liberal in terms of cost because a desktop computer has NO mobility.
I can see when Government works AGAINST us.
I can ALSO see when Government BENEFITS us.
You tend to sound like you're suffering from "Rightness Disease"
It's an affliction where an individual must be "Right" in order to validate themselves.
I suffered from it when I was younger and thought it was important to ALWAYS be "RIGHT or CORRECT"... it's NOT!
I used to have problems with my carrier’s voip service. Then I switched to Basic Talk and haven’t had a problem since. Saves me $30/month, too.
Maybe NN would have helped TWC have better voip.
They’ll just get it from ancestory.com.
Not suprising.
And yet there are those poor souls who are dying to put the control of their internet use into the grubby hands of the federal government.
Insanity.
I’m sorry, but in this particular case, you seem to be suffering from cranial-rectal inversion. This is exactly the kind of situation where government screws it up by taking it over. It’s not about me being right. Joe Bastardi at Weatherbell looks at analogs from previous years to make long-term forecasts. Likewise, I am looking at historical analogs where government is involved to predict what would happen with net neutrality. The same pinheads raised the same kind of doom-and-gloom specter when Apple only introduced the iPhone on AT&T. Their predictions were dead wrong because they distrusted markets. As you seem to do as well, while ignoring the fact that the situation you described with Comcast was largely due to a near-monopoly that Comcast had at the time - with the help of government regulations. But rather than learn from that history, you are demanding another heaping serving.
bkmk
O.K... Have it your way. We'll pronounce you as "Right"
Now do you feel better? If you do, then you more than likely have the "Rightness Disease."
Yeah, because the last 30 years prior to 2015 Comcast and others were charging for using 3rd party services and sights... This will open competition which has been stifled in the ISP race.
Set up VPN on a router? A 2nd router? It can fool Apple TV and Amazon prime?
I notice you did quite a job of not addressing the contradiction in your post that I pointed out, instead falling back on an ad hominem attack - which is a typical approach for someone holding an otherwise indefensible and contradictory position. You really picked the wrong place to pimp Obama-era socialism and power-grabbing. We fight that stuff here, not wave the pom-poms and then bend over and ask for more.
Your congestion is from the $10/month people from whom you could not be protected. These people have no priority over you in a net neutrality world.
You pay for a high speed, but its only burst speed and not a minimum guaranteed rate because you cant be prioritized over the freeloaders.
I REST MY CASE!
YOU DO have "Rightness Disease".. WHY.. Because you just WILL NOT give up proving you're "RIGHT".. even after I stated "O.K... Have it your way. We'll pronounce you as "Right"
Once again.. I REST MY CASE.. dirtboy is a DIM-BULB!
Says the poster pimping socialism on a conservative website. I guess you'll ride this ad hominem all the way to the end of the thread.
My point is simply this. If Net Neutrality is removed then the new rule is "if you want MORE than you'll PAY MORE".
My understanding is removal of NN means free enterprise dominates, which means there will be NEW plans costing MORE if you want MORE.
Boy.. you got it bad. Stifle yourself son!
Imagine that. Let's apply Net Neutrality rules to car sales. I can afford a Kia. I want a Mercedes. Using your 'logic' and that of the government, I should be able to buy a Mercedes for the cost of a Kia, simply because I want more while paying the same price.
We had that kind of logic applied to auto sales before - in East Germany. It resulted in Trabants, because it removed the profit incentive to make and sell better cars. And that is exactly the issue here. Your approach would strip the profit incentive to improve bandwidth. Which is why socialism always stagnates.
Your pimping of socialism reeks and belongs elsewhere, such as a college Marxist bull session. At least those kids have an excuse, they haven't lived in the real world yet. What is your excuse?
True - and folks get their pets chipped now. Why not themselves next year?
