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.

If its Communism we’re getting from Net Neutrality, you can be sure its Communism that benefits Crony Capitalism that buys politicians from both big parties.......

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.”

I’m afraid I’m with you on this. The cynic in me says no chance. The feds have a chance to vote themselves more power over us, or not. Is there really any doubt as to how this is going to go? Is there any doubt that the days are numbered - maybe not extremely small numbers, yet - but the days are numbered for sites like FR. Hate crimes, hate speech, hate sites, hate content. Anything and anyone that does not gloriously support dear leader, whichever fascist that happens to be at the time, will be banned and blocked. Time to think about starting up the old FIDOnet dialup point-to-point systems again.

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.

Wheeler’s life may have been threatened if he does with this administration. They are worse than any Mafia that has ever existed. They assassinate, extort, bully, harass, steal, lie, plot, don’t play by the same rules (exempting themselves), etc... So tell me they are any different than the Mafia? I say far worse. The Mafia at least has limits and certain codes of conduct they won’t violate. Our current feral government has none and they are getting worse.

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

This is all part of Soros setting up the NWO. He’s going to fry like bacon later.
