where are you guys getting your info if Wikipedia is wrong.

Did this shit get edited by trolls?


The wikipedia article you posted doesn't state that net neutrality has only been around since 2015. It states the legal regulations requiring net neutrality have been around since 2015. Net neutrality is essentially how we expect the internet to work. The idea that all data should be treated equally.

We essentially just trusted that ISPs would treat all data equally. Then a few ISPs tried some stuff that prompted the government to put regulations requiring it in.


Right, it was like an honor system. Then Comcast throttled torrent sites and the FCC find out they couldnt do anything.

Then for 5 years Comcast and the other ISPs realized they couldnt be controlled and it wasnt this doomsday scenario reddit had me believe

Im still for net neutrality, but you guys realize that its not likely these ISPs will throttle sites that will piss off the public, otherwise the FCC will probably repass something to give the FCC power again
