As I sit here trying to watch Hulu and the buffering is whooping my butt, I would like to thank our fabulous federal government for not allowing HUGE services like Hulu, Netflix etc. pay for additional speed. If you cannot balance a budget you are not smart enough to understand much less regulate or control the internet. Please, stop it. NOW. I suggest the actual owners of the internet backbones just shut it off until they repeal their over stretching money grabbing crap law.

I'm confused. I thought net neutrality was a bad thing. Like it sounded good in title "oh hey neutral internet" but the writing was all "You have to pay to get speed and that's neutral cause every one is free to pay" when did it become good?

What no, it's the opposite, where if you DON'T have net neutrality, companies can be like "you have to pay to get speed for these selected internets"

:bravo2: 2/26/2015 8:19:13 PM There was a time that any and all information we got was from the three big networks. We had no idea if it was true or real or what, we just trusted them. That has changed, yes some of it is because of Fox, but most of it is now because of the internet. Do you think any of us would know that Obama was raised and influenced by Marxist and Communist if not for the internet? The Dems lost big in 2010 and even bigger in 2014, and a lot of that is because of information and connections we all make over the good ole world wide web. That is what this is all about. Nothing more then control of what we can see and hear and learn for ourselves. Government control of national healthcare, now of the internet. Fundamental Transformation to the biggest possible extent. Kinda makes one wonder about the stories about FEMA camps being true after all.

For real though handing over internet naming to the un is dumb as poo poo. Adding unlimited top level domains is dumb as poo poo. Adding non-english domain names is insanely retarded

Seriously this is allmgoing to be such a pain in the rear end I hope they all die before implementation

I'm not a liberal and cannot participate in the liberal challenge. Post that page or any page from your 332 page dream document.

Or maybe you're embarrassed you've been championing legislation you know nothing about?
