"The opposition, in contrast, has been represented by small players in the industry, hardware providers like Cisco, free-market think tanks and disinterested professors, and a small group of writers and pundits who know something about freedom and free-market economics. The public at large should have been rising up in opposition but people are largely ignorant of what’s going on"
WTF? Cisco is not a "Small player" in the industry. Not even a little bit. They're a dogshit company, but not a small one. |

I'm not sure if that came from the FoxNews comment section or our own DC forum.
Just beautiful work there. |

Naturally the usual cast of stupid is here saying how great this is. For the 'selling point', ie stopping throttling of certain services, yeah, it's great. The problem here is 1. This opens the door for them to regulate internet traffic - kiss another piece of liberty good bye, thanks to 'liberals' and 2. The FCC, on their own, decided they wanted the power to make this decision and thus gave the power to themselves. If that doesn't scare you / piss you off, then you are a dumbass.

Please explain how the FCC doesn't have the power to regulate. |

The converse could also be said, because nothing has actually changed one way or another from yesterday to today.
