The net neutrality isn't as bad as people say it is. Watch, we'll all forget about this soon.

I'm scared that America will soon leak over. I want to move to Australia or some other non-European non-North American English speaking nation (if such a thing exists).

If some ISP got the idea of doing that here, they would be raped by our Consumer agency in no time.

Much as adamant NN supporters may say otherwise, not all websites are equal, and it only makes sense that they would not be treated equal. As long as not too many people in charge decide to be bastards, it is perfectly believable that no bad will come of this.

Yep, there's your problem. You're not only relying on people to behave in a way that benefits everyone, but people in power.

Whether all websites are equal or not, they should be treated equally when it comes to flinging their content through the tubes. I'd be quite pissed if my favourite websites started loading slow because some big ad company had paid to have their traffic be "more important". Let alone if I were trying to run a business and suffering from that problem. "Nah, let's not go to that site, it takes forever to load. This big one is nice and quick." Whoops, bye-bye small business, don't let the door hit you on the way out.

It's amazing that someone who purports to know how the tubes work would think that would happen...

Last view: 3036 days 		Psh, if they implement this people will simply find ways around their 'traffic controlling' technology. I believe proxies might be able to circumvent it, but if they can't somebody will find a way.

In the end, you can't mess with people's connections that much, or else you'll have riots on your hands.

All we need is some way to access the internet through foreign services via something like satellite or something and this is deeead.
