We were singin' bye bye sweet internet pie, glanced around online but the law weren't fine, I know it sounds dramatic now but why, is it every time the law moves someone dies?

Great, now there are zero legal safeguards preventing ISP fast-lane throttling bullstuff. We've written Comcast a blank check to be leagues more evil than they have ever been.

Time to figure out how to steal cable. Again.

You need to make bribing politicians illegal

Welp, ya guys got any VPN Recommendations?


WE ARE WINNING FOLKS!

The FCC began taking public comments on its website last month, and so far, more than 1.6 million people have weighed in. A majority of the approximately 4 million comments received in 2014 urged the FCC to enact the tough rules. But people sending in statements of support for the rules might be wasting their time in this new proceeding. Pai and his Republican colleague, Michael O’Rielly, have indicated they won’t be swayed by the volume of comments for or against the proposal.

Basically "the people want regulations to protect the consumer but the government says 'forget you'"

I had an argument with my dad a few days ago about neutrality and it turns out that as much as he thinks he does know about it he is completely wrong
