>> When someone watches a film over the Internet, especially in high definition, the maximum available capacity of the user’s connection is used

Yet somehow we can all watch a variety of 1000 SD and HD TV channels over the same wire without any noticeable caching delays...

Oh well, we keep taking the hits. I guess we deserve our fate.

Pop-ups and directions to liberal sites from conservative sites.

Like the Fairness Doctrine.

Congress authorized the FCC, and gave it its authority. There is no Constitutional basis for its existence. Congress can un-authorize the FCC if it chooses. Ahem.

A lot of people on the right are against this, but some of us on the tech side want this. I think some people are thinking fairness doctrine, but techies want comcast to be a big dumb people and not try to turn into aol. The Level 3 vs Comcast this week is turning in it and AT&T and Verizon have been misbehaving as well/

No...it’s time to line the streets of Washington and raise hell over this unconstitutional tyranny...stifling free speech. Where is the ACLU? Where is the TEA party? Where are freedom loving Americans?

I'd say we here at FR need to start saying our goodbyes, as this site will cease to exist after Dec. 21st!

Every one of our freedoms are being stripped in a month, a lame-duck month!

Obama, the narcissist, just keeps rolling forward with his marxist plan, by the time 2012 comes, we will not even have the right to vote!

he says will "preserve the freedom and openness of the Internet."

What a gift to conservatives and the GOP. We have a once in a generation opportunity to capture the mushy middle using GEN X & Y by preserving Internet freedom.

I hope Boehner uses both edges of the sword on this one:

1. Very publicly undo the meddling and declare the Internet off limits while he's Speaker

2. Defund the FCC and replace it with a market mechanism.

The hits keep on coming. If we play it right we'll hold the House and capture the Senate in 2012...and hold them for 40 years!

The elites have wanted to destroy the internet since day one. They are already squeezing FOX news. Now they need to regulate and control the internet under various pretexes. What they cannot control they destroy, what they cannot destroy they tax to death. Watch them try and license websites like broadcast stations. Watch foreign governments extert pressure to shut down websites they find offensive.

into the valley of electoral death rode the 95 Congressional hopefuls who had publicly vowed to support greater government regulation of the Internet.

It says “Congress shall pass no law”.

It doesn’t say we can’t take it by fiat. :)

"...550 footnotes and is stamped "non-public, for internal use only" to ensure nobody outside the agency sees it until the rules are approved in a scheduled Dec. 21 vote."
