Well, they repealed it, I'm glad. Now all of you liberals can shut the hell up. We never had net neutrality 2 years ago... so what's the fuss?

When will you notice a change?
Other than the social media uproar, there won't be any immediate changes to your internet experience.

"Realistically, I don’t think consumers are going to see much of a difference," said Daniel Lyons, an associate professor of law at Boston College and a tech policy expert.

This is honestly one of the most uninformed and unintelligent posts that I've ever read.

You're looking at this:

No, I'm sorry for being that guy, but your ISP does not give two flying SHITS about dying people having internet access. Their interest is to make a monopoly and gain more and more money, not have a thousand dying people have a larger chance of living (wtf is that argument?)

If you were the CEO of an ISP any company and you had competition, you would obviously want to crush that competition to make more money.

Straight from the internet, what ISPs are LEGALLY ALLOWED TO DO WITH NO REGULATION:

- Favoring private networks: this isn't a fictional example this happened - Comcast made a deal with Microsoft which allowed Xbox 360 bandwidth to not be counted but Netflix would stream much slower and counted towards the limit. A possible extreme: You must pay for not having a slow connection on service X, or you can pay monthly to your ISP to get their service Y, which actually increases their money and influence, creating a larger monopoly. (Remember Theodore Roosevelt's trust busting plan from school?)

This is just one example of many, not every situation can be given.

This, in turn, limits your:
- freedom of speech, press, and religion

Well fucking rip.

Dude please shut the hell up lol, how about try using google for something maybe?

ONE google search "when was net neutrality passed" yields the result:
"On February 26, 2015, the FCC ruled in favor of net neutrality by reclassifying broadband as a common carrier under Title II of the Communications Act of 1934 and Section 706 of the Telecommunications Act of 1996. "

I think its pretty comical how in the first sentence of your first post you say "I'm a trump supporter.."

Jesus fuck, I don't particularly want to get political but you confirm how most Europeans even stereotype Trump supporters.

Congress doesn't need to vote because the FCC can bypass them, lol

Even though i'm totaly against this stuff eventually by time it's a possibility that it might become a thing. The internet is only 20 years old (roughly) so who knows what would happen in another 20 years to the internet.
