You really don't seem to understand this ruling. You and Just Passing By.

Maybe it's a Massachusssets thing.

Considering that it is 300+ pages instead of a few defining what Net Neutrality is. I am guessing there is a whole lot more to it than that. Even then, more regulation means more compliance costs which drive out new competition leaving the large companies entrenched.

I am not from Massachusetts but I wouldn't think a Scandinavian would understand that there is more than one place called Gloucester.

I think there is a ton of misinformation being put out by right wing media. Hannity had a politician on the other night spouting total nonsense similar to what these guys are saying.

There's a lot of information out there, but it takes time to understand this issue. Too many people think they are informed by soundbites.

You wouldn't mind ISPs being able to favor certain content so that some is faster than others?

I would actually. If I am a gamer I would want my ISP to favor my gaming packets. If I like streaming videos, I want my ISP to favor those. If I have VOIP I want my ISP to favor that.

There are very good reasons why a customer would want their ISP to favor one type of packet over another.

Gloucester Chief thinks crack should be legal. He's an extremist libertarian if not anarcho-capitalist. He doesn't think the govt should have a role in anything except protecting his property.

Let the free market rein. Seems like that would be straight out of the Republican dogma.
Um that seems to conflict with some of your other posts. Just saying....

This is not about companies. Or about their right to charge whatever they want to charge for that bandwidth. They are free to charge whatever they want for their bandwidth. It just has to charge every customer the same rate and not throttle their content unless they pay more than everyone else. And if you don't pay more.....we will throttle you and ruin your business, so pay us pal or else. If every company is doing this to every customer, there is no fair market.

Again, maybe its a Fox News misinformation thing, It's about double charging for that bandwidth. And huge corporations being able to buy up all the bandwidth and squeeze out small businesses.

Exactly. Had this law not gone into effect, massive corporations with virtually unlimited resources could put the little internet guy out of business quickly.

So for now, it remains a level playing field.

According to USA Today, no one outside of the FCC has actually seen the 317-322 pages regarding this regulation. I will be curious to see what else is in there. The main issues everyone who seems to champion seems to be a no brainer and you have to wonder why it would take a year and 322 pages to say that ISP's cannot sell preferential treatment?

This is definitely a concern.

No telling what kind of shit people have tried to sneak in there.

As I said in the DC thread this is a good thing and I support it but there will be unintended consequences from their action. It had to happen though to keep the ISP's from killing content providers like Netflix, Amazon etc and also to allow me to continue to watch porn without all the stuttering and downloading bittorrents.
