Nut-job Conspiracy Theory Ping!
To get onto The Nut-job Conspiracy Theory Ping List you must threaten to report me to the Mods if I don't add you to the list...
If you aren't paying, you're the product...
...and if you ARE paying, you STILL might be the product!
People seem to be woefully uninformed and also seem to think that commercial privacy is their new entitlement. But privacy is not an entitlement, it is guaranteed by adopting security. It cannot be guaranteed by regulatory government.
They, and many retail firms, have been selling your private information for profit for quite some time.
LOL
Soylant Green?
Bet it’s ours and Trump’s but not theirs or Hellary’s.
I agree. More government regulation is not the answer
Astonishingly even on a conservative forum many are fooled by this spin and lies of the communists. Government is the problem not the answer .
Asking for government to protect your “privacy” with regulations is like asking doctors to cure a cold by injecting yourself with cancer cells or HIV cells
Once or ten times a day we should all search one finger salutes.
Your Right to Privacy.
Can Hospitals sell your medical records to whoever they want?
Answer: No it’s your privacy.
This is VERY BASIC, and not rocket science. Haha!
But hey, since it actually only removes a future regulation which no one is yet subject to and keeps things exactly as they are today, they're traitors, in your opinion.
the bill of rights is a restriction on the government.
the 4th is a restriction on the Feds...where are the Feds in violation of the 4th here ?
Exactly!
Great graphic BTW...
Funny. There’s always a cost...
“The Senate overturned late Obama-era rules Thursday meant to protect consumer privacy from internet service providers that want to sell it. “
I agree with the Senate , yes overturn stupid Obama government regulations no matter how “consumer protective” this article says they were.
The ISPs want more subscribers, but in order to provide internet service to rural or low population areas and keep it affordable for those customers, they need to offset the costs with advertising revenue.
This will create two tiers: opt in for a lower price, opt out for a higher price.
The alternative is taxing everyone and using those funds to subsidize rural internet access, or everyone moves to cities.
This is terrible and allows the government to legally buy your browse history data.
It allows advertisers to buy data~government already has it if what has been divulged by Snowden and others this week is true (I think it is.)
I am not familiar with this website, Inverse. Do you have any other sources?
Actually, someone told me about this legislation today, so I would like to know more.
These spineless yobs just don’t seem to get it yet
ALso, the website, Inverse, does not have any bill numbers or resolution information...Do you?
“If you are concerned about your privacy then sign up to opt out.”

That’s precisely the problem with this vote. What it reverses *is the option to opt-out*.
