The Federal Communications Commission voted Thursday to repeal net neutrality rules, over the objection of Democrats in Congress, Internet activists and online companies.
FCC Chairman Ajit Pai, Commissioner Michael O’Rielly, and Commissioner Brendan Carr, all Republicans, supported the proposed rollback of the Obama-era rules. Democratic Commissioners Mignon Clyburn and Jessica Rosenworcel opposed the change.

In my opinion, this is a good thing.
Net neutrality as written, does not not mean what the name implies.

Winning - the internet does not need or want censorship and regulation from our corrupt and purchased government.

Net neutrality as written, does not not mean what the name implies. Government initiatives spawned by the Obama administration never do.

When liberals write a law, the law never means what the name implies.
To: Texas Fossil
You got that right, just like; “common sense” gun laws, “comprehensive” immigration, “patriot” act, and on and on.

Net neutrality as written, does not not mean what the name implies. Its kind of like "The Affordable Care Act" in that regard. With leftists its all about the "messaging" when they name these things.

Net Neutrality was the most Orwellian named policy. George Orwell would have been proud.

Can someone please tell me why “Net Neutrality” is a bad thing, or point my in the right direction? I am having a hard time getting my mind wrapped around this.

Techies, particularly 40 year old and under techies, see this as pure evil. This is going to cost Trump and the GOP votes.
2018 won’t be pretty.
