just wondering what you thought about this

I would support the destruction of the internet itself if John Oliver told me not to.

Go away John

>>/bant/

fpbp

Fuck off john, maybe we can help you if you praise kek on your show next week
We need something first

agreed

He's correct about everything though. Why wouldn't you back him up when he asks. He's the only one I see that exposes corruption, no matter who it is.

Unless it's Hillary.

Oh, or the EU

It's like he's asking for it wink wink

he might be right about net neutrality, I think it's a very complex issue that requires a much further understanding than I have on the subject.

But he should recognize that he is persona non grata here and propositioning us to do something for him is counter-productive as hell. I'd consider slitting my dog's throat if he told me not to.

your a fucking moron

>everything

>be muh army

Because he's a filthy nigger loving Jew rat.

He is a degenerate amongst degenerates. He deserves to die a dishonorable death while his cameras film him.

got this a while back, fitting now

I'm against getting rid of net neutrality, but I am also against being told what to do by a gun grabbing redcoat. My ancestors would be too ashamed.

Not his personal army.

I'd rather stab myself in the ear with an icepick than do anything Le Current Year Man says.

He's right for once

I support the idea of net neutrality but
>always do the opposite of what Jews say

Shoe on head pic on tv

Given that the isps in the us have used government money to build their infrastructure, it's natural for them to follow regulations and net neutrality. We shouldn't let companies that take us tax dollars do what they want.

I'm doing the radical unthinkable thing called thinking critically about the issue at hand based on the strengths and weaknesses of each side to decide what to do and not letting some liberal fuck nugget influence me either way

What he says is irrelevant to my opinion but it does factor into the process that the corporate owners at HBO want net neutrality protected and therefore must have an ulterior motive for wanting to do so.

He cannot possibly say anything to sway me for or against something. Why would you let this genetic abomination influence you in any way about any issue?

Net Neutrality = Regulatory Capture
It's fine with the FTC making sure no one is flat out breaking any laws, like it always has been

maybe but do you really want to say that i personally have a problem typing the words

Like I would help that shill, except maybe to offer the sweet release of death.

I agree he has to praise kek and call ben afleck a faggot

Net neutrality is nowhere near as black and white as Oliver says. Ajit Pai wants to cut unnecessary regulations. I'm all for it. Don't regulate unless there is need to regulate.

I'll do it if he kills himself.

Not your personal army.

THIS MAN IS FAMOUS

Genuinely one of the most visually and intellectually acceptable requests I've ever seen.

We won't give you publicity you snaggle toothed limey queer

Is it though? Case by case regulations? It seems like setting up laws to promote corruption.

hi ajit
read my fcc comment while drinking out of your reese's toilet bowl

>Oliver posted this himself
>Got no (You)s
>Probably waited until the thread archived

I want to hear him praise kek

The day i join this literal lying propaganda mouth piece is the day i pretend of joining him so i can get close and rip his stupid face off.

He's right. At this point the government is actually more trustworthy on free speech than private companies thanks to all their fucking virtue signaling.

Be ready for "Throttling traffic to hate sites" to be a selling point for ISPs if we lose net neutrality.

Come on. You can't take Olivers arguments seriously without even listening to the other side.

he's not wrong on this one. doesn't mean he's right thought.

good one fellow pede XD

Yeah he's fucking right. This fight is not political, it's verizon and comcast vs people. Paint that however you want. We are all getting fucked by this and we're getting fucked hard.

If you think I'm exaggerating one penny when I say it's going to be $150/month for 8GB capped landline I'm not. Comcast has already talked about locking the ability to stream video at all of any kind from any site behind paying for a cable package to save TV from dying.

he bugged you enough that you're doing advertising for him

>giving yourself (You)'s on television

That must feel great.

What do you think will happen if Hillary comes to power next? Throttling traffic to hate sites will be in the regulations.

Private companies have no reason to work against paying customers without government coercion.

Sounds good, what's the hashtag?

you dumb nigger cucks would spite fuck anyone.

John Oliver and the rest of his kind have poisoned the well so badly at this point that I'm willing to support anything that would be bad for them, even if it hurts me too.

If john openly declears his love and devotion to Kek and has pepe had his new background in his show and apologies to me personally about being a cuck then sure

He's right, there's no point being contrarian just because he's a fuckstick. The only people who win if Net Neutrality gets removed are the absolute scumfucks who run the ISPs

Why support the faggot Oliver?

Or anyone who you're not supposed to criticise.

He's right about this issue though.
I think he should get the help he wants if those who could help him agree with the particular course. Help him do good, turn him down when he does bullshit.

Of course, the counter argument is, people will continue to shit on you if you still support them afterwards. He'll take the support but then immediately move on to doing bullshit again once he doesn't need us anymore. Perhaps the he should be turned down. You can't go around burning bridges and then wonder why people will refuse cooperation, even if just to spite you.

This

Stop being petty

Sharpie in pooper

We've been with net neutrality before Oliver had his shitty show. If anything he's following us.

If net neutrality is enforced it's the government who can regulate the internet. And guess who the dems will come after if they win?

oh yeah I'd rather have corporations control the internet than elected representatives

Fuck him, send that buck toothed teanigger back to England!

Can you tell me how net neutrality expanding government power over private isp is a good thing?

No. He's actively trying to destroy the west. There's nothing petty about that.

your employers at comcast for shaking down companies

>Throttling traffic to hate sites
You think they're going in a blacklist direction? Cracker please, they're going full on short whitelist and ALL other sites get throttled. There'll be channel packages with lists of specific sites and that's fucking it. You want the "unlimited plan" where they let you use the internet like a fucking pre-cyberpunk dystopia human being, that'll be hundreds of dollars, metered by the byte, and intended mainly for enterprise level.

He's not influencing my stance. I'm still for net neutrality, for the same reason some anons have already mentioned: I don't trust corporations with an institution as culturally important as the internet. The corporations have been completed subverted by kike culture.

But that doesn't mean I have to follow this snagletooth's online brigade.

This

Do you even understand politics, you idiot? Corporations will control it anyway because corporations can bribe politicians legally, you filthy commie

Because elected representatives are not corrupt?
With private bodies, you know what their business interests are. Not so when there's quid pro quo with elected representatives.

he's absolutely right.

I hate a lot of his other views, but this is a valid one.

Have you even looked at the regulations user? It gave the state arbitrary powers. Pai's argument there was cogent.

The time has come. I will call the Sup Forums and talk with him. With his single, undivided attention, and his unified spirit, and above all his total internal agreement, he will surely solve this problem.

yeah their business interest is to exploit their local monopolies over infrastructure to stifle competition and to seek economic rent

>you know what their business interests are
Yes, fucking over consumers as hard as they can without overstepping the bounds of the law. I'm not a socialist, I'm as free market as you can get but even I know that giving corporations unfettered control over internet traffic is a really bad idea. Corproations only care about the bottom line, as as a shareholder, so they should. You need to temper that with solid regulations that make sure that consumers aren't getting fucked raw though.

...

Test

The main aid in maintaining monopolies is regulations user.
If John Oliver is shilling for something we need to be a bit skeptical.

>personal army request
We aren't your personal army John

He's a commie and he'll get the rope soon.

Have you seen what the regulations were user? They let FCC decide stuff on case to case basis. Setting up opportunities for corruption.

infrastructure is a natural monopoly and needs to be run as a regulated utility
you are the most transparent industry shill who has ever shilled

Yeah the word "shill" gets thrown around a lot but you are literally white knighting for multi-billion dollar nightmare corporations. Seriously you are talking about COMCAST AND VERIZON for fuck's sake! They are what the entire genre of cyberpunk was created to warn us about.

Every human being in this country has a story of being brutally fucked by them already and you think if the legal requirements for the minimum level of service they are required to provide is lifted it'll get better??

I don't believe a real person could hold that view. I think you have to be from Comcast.

Too many people on Sup Forums want to get fucked in the ass by corporations in the name of muh free markets . Enjoy paying 200 a month for the internet

Except laws have been broken at various points in favor specifically for "one provider" solutions that are precisely the anti competitive practices that net neutrality is supposed to prevent

>we
fuck off

Not from Comcast. Despise them.
Listened to Ajit Pai before. Seems to make sense to me.
You think John Oliver is not a shill? And hbo has no agenda here?

Nope .this isn't true

I'd be a bad shill if I were one. Just a libertarian who hates Oliver because it's 2017.

>The main aid in maintaining monopolies is regulations user
A half truth at best. Yes strict regulations make it more expensive and more difficult for new businesses to enter a market, but at the same time those regulations often have good reason for existing, such as safety. Removing regulations wouldn't necessarily mean everyone could jump in and compete in any market, it would make it cheaper to enter but large companies would be far more efficient at either stamping out or buying out competition and maintaining their monopolies. The problem is that consumers are not perfectly rational and brand power is EXTREMELY powerful. If you think you could create a better tasting soda than Coke or Pepsi and beat them because your Sup Forums brand cola is objectively better you're wrong. People gravitate toward the familiar and unless you have a MASSIVE competitive advantage somehow people will still buy slightly inferior products from a well known brand.

So no, regulations aren't really an issue at all, and they're certainly not the cause of monopolies and removing them wouldn't make it any easier to compete with the billion dollar industry leaders.

laugh track annoying as fuck

I think he's a real shill, but he raises a good point. It's in our best interest to do this.

of course all content vendors upstream have an agenda to prevent themselves from being extorted by some isp mafioso

You're not really a libertarian. You're a dogmatic drone that refuses to acknowledge what the rest of us have realized - the internet is now the public square. You're a blind child if you don't see that.

I couldn't agree more

If you were targeting a population that Pepsi was ignoring purposely you'd beat it there.
The threat of competition prevents companies from doing stupid stuff in a deregulated system.

...

What did he propose? Did he come bearing ideas?
If we knew how to crack that nut we'd have already done so.

The internet is a public square, sure.
But is letting the government set up regulations on a case by case basis the solution?
Has there been a transgression to necessitate regulations?

Excuse me, are you aware what HBO is precisely?
