Comprehensive Net Neutrality would have been more effective. /s

The party that cried "Wolf!"

One of the Democratic commissioners on the FCC claimed that repealing "net neutrality" would "green light to our nation's largest broadband providers to engage in anti-consumer practices, including blocking, slowing down traffic, and paid prioritization of online applications and services." [...]

A year later, none of the horror stories came true. In fact, average internet speeds climbed by roughly a third last year. The number of homes with access to fiber internet jumped 23% last year, according to the Fiber Broadband Association.

"Repealing “net neutrality” regulations “would be the final pillow in (the internet’s) face,” said The New York Times. The ACLU said it “risks erosion of the biggest free-speech platform the world has ever known.” CNET declared that “net neutrality repeal means your internet may never be the same.” CNN labeled repeal the “end of the internet as we know it.”



Tech companies colluding to deplatform conservatives is totally legitimate because it would be wrong for any FCC regulation against this....Open internet is a dog whistle for white supremacy!!!!

My question was — was Google included in the registration and if not, why?

[Mariner]

There were many, many dumbasses on Free Republic that supported NN.

And they were supporting content providers over those who actually developed and built the Internet. They were supporting Google, FaceBook and all the commies, over AT&T, Verizon, Sprint and all the backbone providers and builders.

They just didn’t want these companies to make a profit off their hundreds of billions of dollars in investment. Investment that actually BUILT THE WHOLE FRIGGIN’ INTERNET.

And it’s because, deep down inside they are commies too.

Silicon Valley had a new startup in mind to police the Internet.
Internet Neutrality would have given them the weapon to turn it on.

Fake News is only a sample of what they had in mind.

“Net neutrality” was part of a commie larger plan... It never had anything to do with freedom - it was always about control.

Because NN was all about censorship. Thank God once again that Hillary lost.
