"everyone is an idiot except me" in more concise wordsNobody needs or wants your take on the situation
2005 – North Carolina ISP Madison River Communications blocked VoIP service Vonage. 2005 – Comcast blocked or severely delayed traffic using the BitTorrent file-sharing protocol. (The company even had the guts to deny this for months until evidence was presented by the Associated Press.) 2007 – AT&T censored Pearl Jam because lead singer criticized President Bush. 2007 to 2009 – AT&T forced Apple to block Skype because it didn’t like the competition. At the time, the carrier had exclusive rights to sell the iPhone and even then the net neutrality advocates were pushing the government to protect online consumers, over 5 years before these rules were actually passed. 2009 – Google Voice app faced similar issues from ISPs, including AT&T on iPhone. 2010 – Windstream Communications, a DSL provider, started hijacking search results made using Google toolbar. It consistently redirected users to Windstream’s own search engine and results. 2011 – MetroPCS, one of the top-five wireless carriers at the time, announced plans to block streaming services over its 4G network from everyone except YouTube. 2011 to 2013 – AT&T, T-Mobile and Verizon blocked Google Wallet in favor of CIA, a mobile payment system in which all three had shares. Verizon even asked Google to not include its payment app in its Nexus devices. 2012 – AT&T blocked FaceTime; again because the company didn’t like the competition. 2012 – Verizon started blocking people from using tethering apps on their phones that enabled consumers to avoid the company’s $20 tethering fee. 2014 – AT&T announced a new “sponsored data” scheme, offering content creators a way to buy their way around the data caps that AT&T imposes on its subscribers. 2014 – Netflix started paying Verizon and Comcast to “improve streaming service for consumers.” 2014 – T-Mobile was accused of using data caps to manipulate online competition.Yeah, Net Neutrality definitely didn't fix any standing issues.
thats only 13 times thats not that many
That's not the whole loving list.
Yeah, Net Neutrality definitely didn't fix any standing issues.
i would imagine if even republicans are in favor of keeping net neutrality we'll get something similar sooner or later
