Internet Neutrality laws are gone, ISPs can now block websites.

ISP companies can now block any website they please for any reason, as ruled by a US appeals court, whether it be for commercial, ethical, or political reasons. You can see an article here.

Apparently, I heard that Obama really tried to defend against the ruling. This isn't to say that I've tried to look for any factual basis, though.

Goodness, this has the potential to end up being like North Korea in a sense; companies could block countless websites and force people to pay to go to the sites.

Guys after reading the article, this really stood out to me:

Free Press president Craig Aaron said under today’s ruling “broadband providers will race to turn the open and vibrant Web into something that looks like cable TV. They’ll establish fast lanes for the few giant companies that can afford to pay exorbitant tolls and reserve the slow lanes for everyone else.”

US internet doomsday will arrive soon. Quick, someone needs to repeal this ruling before all of the ISPs located in the US turn into utter crap!

Three billion online lives ended on January 15, 2014. The survivors of the cyber fire called the war Neutrality Day. They lived only to face a new nightmare – the war against the ISPs.
