--- Quote from: Badspot on July 13, 2017, 10:19:08 PM ---My conspiracy theory is that telecoms are sabotaging internet voice communication to keep their aging phone service relevant. A private teamspeak server doesn't really replace your phone, where skype and hangouts do, so your teamspeak server is not a target. --- End quote --- Yep every single one of the world's ISP CEOs meetup annually in a dimly lit conference room; only their silhouettes visible, among the shroud of darkness and swirling cigar smoke. I'd be more inclined to think the tall gray alien civilization are actively trolling our VOIP via intermittent electromagnetic interference bursts, just for the lolz. Once again, guys - it's aliens. First they made the frogs gay by poisoning our water, now they're screwing with our VOIP. :cookieMonster: |

Excerpts from a net neutrality timeline that I saved: 2005 - Madison River Communications was blocking VOIP services. The FCC put a stop to it. http://archive.is/18mZI 2007-2009 - AT&T was having Skype and other VOIPs blocked because they didn't like there was competition for their cellphones. http://archive.is/8ok3S 2012, AT&T - tried to block access to FaceTime unless customers paid more money. https://www.freepress.net/press-release/99480/att-blocking-iphones-facetime-app-would-harm-consumers-and-break-net-neutrality |

isps should be broken up into specific services only. Dont be trying to extort extra for THEIR phone services and THEIR television, just because you are already on THEIR internet already. |

Those that do don't care about how much pollution goes into the ground, oceans, and air. They'll just relax until they literally can't breath anymore and then they'll just relax in air-filtered sealed complexes. |
