and i see that no one addressed RoadsterUFO's salient point about how you lot are actually perfectly fine with unfair internet rules when it's done to censor people you disagree with.

there is no open and free internet as long as a few giant players like paypal or amazon or etc hold the keys to the platform as a whole. regardless of any "net neutrality" laws that make it easier for high-traffic cloud services to stay in business

This is such a sad attempt to piggyback on someone else once youve been thoroughly destroyed in your own topic.

lmbo how long are redhats gonna keep pretending they don't know what "censorship" means

Right? Like its amazing how in one topic theyll cry because people dont want businesses discriminating against LGBTQ people but the next topic theyre complaining that anything Facebook disallows is evil censorship that violates their rights. On one hand its fine for ISPs to throttle bandwidth for any reason whatsoever but its also evil for Twitter to ban people calling for genocide. Theres no consistency and no thought process whatsoever.


I didnt vote for Trump and dislike him for multiple reasons. I was just pointing out the irony of social media platforms bitching about the end of NN and all these what if scenarios of discrimination (while simultaneously using their platform to do what theyre bitching about ISPs possibly doing in the future). A private business should be allowed to discriminate against whomever they want. If some social media giant wants to ban hammer a Neo-Nazi and if some religious baker wants to refuse service to a gay dude all should be free and fair to do so.


And ISPs should be able to jack up the prices of their services. For the meltdown, at least.


In order for better advances in ISPs to exist youre gonna to have to take it by a local issue and get rid of all those good intentions zoning/regulatory laws in place that lobbyists and bigger companies lobbied for to make it harder to get into that market in the first place.


I only use the Internet at work so LOL don't care about how much it costs.
