Why are you spending the last day of a free and open internet on Sup Forums ?

You better download those torrents kino and that porn right now, the internet dies tomorrow.

Nothing will really change until some manner of legislation gets jammed through that makes the planned non-neutral business models unequivocally legal.

I'll finally be free from this place

If you don't know how to get around stuff like this and whatever else you're trying to imply with your NN liberal agenda then you don't' deserve to be here 2bh

I want to die with my family at my side.

The only reason you can get around anything is network neutrality.

Fuck off reddit.

they already are

the title II classifaction that's being stripped was instated because comcast was already prioritizing traffic (specifically netflix) without notifying customers, and had already won in court for its right to do so. the judge for that case was so annoyed that he outlined exactly what the fcc would have to do to stop this - basically, classify isps as title II carriers - and then fcc did so. netflix sued again, netflix won this time

now that that's being pulled back, they can go back to arbitrarily prioritizing or outright denying traffic, and with regional monopolies eliminating competition n huge areas of the us, there's simply nowhere else to go

...

>enough getting fucked by liberal social media, time to get fucked by liberal telecoms
>by the way social media can still fuck us

...

Not only will twitter still be able to do the above, but now your cable company and cellphone provider can too.

Phoneposters are basically fucked.

Hey now, stop ruining Sup Forums's fun. They might not be very bright but they go above and beyond at making mspaint comics.

There will always be piracy

>give up your rights
>vote directly against your own interests
>fuck things up for yourself and future generations even harder than they already were
>lol but we sure made those liberals mad!!!!

it's not like there aren't plenty of other fulfilling and effective ways to piss off liberals that don't involve screwing over yourself in the process

Could care less about porn. At least BLACKED cucked shit like that will finally die.

>living in a fascist state like the US
Ha!

I'm pro net neutrality definitely, I like corporations to be as blueballed as possible and for general services to be free and open.

That said, I really hate the internet by now, nothing left to get from it, so the adverse effects of it becoming suddenly insufferable to use, like a controlled, contained corporate ad / hell-scape, well, I guess... good? Will be much less inclined to come back. It's like when the drugs you're addicted to stop even being fun, and it's easier to quit.

And anyways, I have enough porn to sustain me, and I'm even bored of that, and I've seen all the movies I think I really needed to see over the last few years.

Not trying to defend corporate interests, it truly sucks, but the internet is terrible and I almost hope it becomes much worse just so I'll stop wasting ANY time at all anymore.

Nothing will change. It'll just end up being how cable packages are but for the internet. Nothing else will happen

you didn't have net neutrality before 2015 niggers, you will be fine

>I want the government to control the internet
>it’s the end of the internet to get rid of a regulatory policy from 2015

Please fuck off with this nonsense

Friend, the absence of legislation that directly states "my business model is legal" means companies can sue and tie everyone up in irresolvable legal battles that can only be solved by government intervention. As is what happened when comcast started throttling netflix to extort netflix. As six months after comcast broke neutrality, something all ISPs operated by specifically because they didn't want government involvement, network neutrality was law. This is record time for something to go from theory to legislation.

Liar

>and with regional monopolies eliminating competition n huge areas of the us, there's simply nowhere else to go
Europe?

Pai is fucking based.

Can't wait for the libcuck tears.

this is correct

>I want corporate control of the internet with absolutely nothing stopping them from collaborating with the government

Network neutrality has only existed for two years. Some of us have been on the Internet longer than you’ve been alive, kid.

fuck off shariablue

wait waitwaitwait WAIT! How does this affect BritBongs and am I allowed to laugh at Amerisharts because of this?

If he really does it. He's going to be the most hated man of the century. There is no return for him. I feel bad for him, even tho he sold the internet. Goodbye fags.

all that would happen is we would have the same internet protection as you now

>I want the government to control the internet
You must really be dumb to believe this.

>Adam and Ralph

Literally who?

>companies can sue and tie everyone up in irresolvable legal battles
the battle was resolved. it was resolved as "yes comcast you can do this." are you suggesting comcast and isps are spending millions lobbying to get this repealed purely on principle? that sure, the exact policy changed implemented specifically to stop them is now being rolled back, but no it's ok we won't actually do it again pinky swear?

if they had no reason or intention to break neutrality they would have no interest in repealing neutrality protection. yet here we are


packing up and moving your life to another continent isn't something most people (especially the ones most affected by this) can do on a whim, as if europe wasn't fucked in a hundred different ways

That's stupid. You're preemptively feeling bad for someone because they're going to be hated for doing a shitty thing

Because the fcc governs the airwaves with such a benevolent band

>don’t you dare say naughty words and kid friendly programming required fffs

Fcc literally means governments control

can't wait 2bh
finally get the old internet before obamer back

t h i c c

>Nothing will change.
>t'll just end up being how cable packages are but for the internet.

That's a pretty big change you dumb nigger

Remember when the white working class wanted to get rid of net-neutrality?

You must be dumb to not know what tthe fcc is and that there are only “monpolies” on broadband because of local and state governments in the first place

>it’s the end of the internet to get rid of a regulatory policy from 2015 and 1939

fixed that for you :^)

Indian conservatives are what we need to btfo the libtards

This is only going to make those squares even more big.

This is a literal Russian disinformation talking point.

No.

>as if europe wasn't fucked in a hundred different ways
Everywhere is fucked, some places more than others. Having said that there are still pockets on reason dotted around, Europe is not a hivemind.

Cable and television in general was WAY better before Reagan let it get raped by corporate and business interests. You didn't have hours (and entire channels) of just infomercials and home shopping bullshit etc.

You have no idea how much this is going to change things.

Also, if you think this is a win for the Right (fuck either side, imo), remember that 'leftist' identity politics is a wholly corporate prerogative at this point. Consider the implications of this. Not dumb conspiracy theorist implications, but still very shitty real implications.

see Gotta get the "you can't do this" legislation removed before you can jam through the "you can do this" legislation.

>radio and telephone regulations from literalky 70 fucking years ago
>should apply to the modern internet

Fucking absolutely not

All the repeal could do is start the SOPA CISPA PIPA ACTA style battles again.

Overseeing isn't the big-gubment boogeyman you think it is.

That’s beautiful, man.

>the gov should control content and bandwidth becaue i don’t like infomercial channels

Fuck communists and their busybody selfish bullshit

>I dislike it so it should be banned

Where do you people come from

>big gubment
you realize the state is as awful as the corporations don't you? the same state that grossly misallocates funds and abuses its power chronically, throwing us into wars we cannot win and starting social programs that do nothing

It’s not?

Last I checked the single biggest offender for controlling information via the internet is governments

Last I checked the single largest murdererers in the last 100 years are governments

W-wait.... you mean we don't have Net Neutrality over here in Britbong land?

What the FUCK!? Why was I not aware of this until now? Why isn't my internet charging per site, I thought that was what happened without NN?

EU has NN

ya, it's not like idiotic liberals are just overreacting about nothing.
>drumpf will crash the stock market
>drumpf will cause ww3
>brexit will crash the stock market
>don jr spoke to a russian lawyer drumpf will be impeached
You people are idiots.

Are you forgetting that Flynn literally admitted that he lied and that Trump told him to communicate with the Russians to try and rig the election last week? Your guy's fucked.

twitter will have to pay out the ass and hopefully it'lll tank the whole company

i'm not sure how many different ways i can say this

prior to the 2015 change, comcast throttles traffic, gets sued, wins. there is now explicit legal precedent permitting isps to arbitrarily throttle traffic. comcast does not need new legislation saying they can do this, because they already were doing it, and set legal precedent saying that can do that

regulative legislation exists to *prevent* regulated bodies from overreaching. without regulative legislation there is nothing stopping them; they don't need an explicit law to enable them to throttle, they were already going it, and they have court precedent to reinforce that they can and will

this is the farthest thing from them being "tied up in irrresolvable legal battles"

who cares, i'll still download everything in sight when it passes like I did pre 2008

I like how many people are talking about how great its going to be to pay more for what they used to get free and loose access to a lot of things they have now.

Someone convinced Americans a long time ago that their states are isolated islands that dindu nuffin.

The "state" can be voted out, good luck voting for a change of board in Comcast.

>throwing us into wars we cannot win
At the behest of their owners ... corporations.

>muh gubment can do stupid things
>therefore they shouldn't be allowed to do anything no matter how categorically beneficial
>and also things they're doing right should be rolled back and repealed because muh biggubment

Friend, netflix settled with comcast out of court.

He was talking about America.

Are you literally retarded because that isn’t at all what happened

Read the news assclown he mueller investigation is currently falling apart because it is literally staffed by anti-trump conspirators

Flynn is in trouble for lying to the fbi but what he lied about was not even illegal

>they can be voted out
Sometimes, but not always. John McCain could be 95 and still get reelected, even with a Republican opponent.

Funny how you tell me to read the news, when the fact I DO read the news is how I knew about the Flynn stuff in the first place. It was a massive story about a week ago and everyone was reporting on it.

By "the news" do you mean Breitbart and Fox News? Because those are not reliable sources...

What?

You can use other carriers

Inb4 “only one carrier”. For 300 million out of 325 million their are at least 2 usually more. The only people with limited services are rural people

Stop with your ignorant nonsense

>Trump told his security adviser to contact russian ambassadors after the election was won
>Flynn lied to the FBI about something unrelated
Woah he must be a russian agent. See this is what I'm talking about. Fucking delusional retards. Or maybe you're trolling? i can't tell the difference now.

Except he's retiring because cancer

>the gov should control content and bandwidth becaue i don’t like infomercial channels
Net neutrality has nothing to do with the government regulating content, you invalid mongoloid. It disallows ISPs from doing exactly that.

>I dislike it so it should be banned
This is going to be the guiding principle of the internet without net neutrality, whatever the ISPs dislike will be banned.

Clearly you didn’t because what I just told you was how the story planned out.

Or do you think the president just got caught organizing the theaft of an election and everyone just shrugged and said “well I guess whatever lol”

You are literally braindamaged

Since citizens united 2010, you'll just be voting for a corporate stooge, no matter who you vote for.

i apologize - i'm thinking of verizon vs fcc, where the court ruled that verizon and other isps were free to throttle traffic arbitrarily. comcast's netflix deal was a direct result of this, as netflix saw the clear legal precedent and knew it would take further policy changes (that came in 2015) before they could re-sue

fortunately this invalidates literally none of my points

Fuck YOU. There is more to life than business. Turning not only the world but the internal world into an endless, hellish strip mall is not worth it.

It's not that simply something I dislike being banned, it's that literally there is basically nothing else BUT infomercial and capeshit type bullshit when you let these types of interests run free.

I'm neither left nor right. I hate leftist identity politics, but I also hate corporations and libertarianism. And I'm sure that I hate you.

This guy is correct.

Ya, it was massive news a week ago because abc broke a fake news story which was btfo and the journalist was suspended.
>muh fox and breitbart
or literally any independent source that isn't corporate. theyre all talking about it.

a choice between comcast throttling your traffic and at&t throttling your traffic isn't really much of a choice

Guys I'm scared. I don't wanna lose Sup Forums

>You can use other carriers
I didn't mention other carriers, but consider this ... they'll all be throttling bandwidth, moron.

>Inb4 “only one carrier”.
Didn't say that, you pulled that out of your ass.

>Stop with your ignorant nonsense
You first, retard.

You're thinking of a ruling that was relevant only to wireless. Which is fair because one carrier's wireless data will never need to cross another wireless carrier's wireless infrastructure. Its customer to tower to wire in all cases.

Why are you so stupid, friend?

PAJIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT

Psycho logic:
I'm wasting too much time on the Internet so I need the Internet to be eliminated to stop wasting my timbe.

Corollary: I'm overeating so I need the world food supply chain to be destroyed so I can fit into my pants again.

For now, agreed.

>premium service that supposedly delivers all content but actually subtly manipulates it for the rich goys
>fucking full on censored shit for the rest of us

This is accurate, reddit, twitter and fb will die while Sup Forums continues strong as ever

that's not going to happen

Well I looked it up and, well, it looks like I was wrong. I distinctly remember it being reported as "Trump ordered Flynn to contact the Russians to rig the election" but it looks like the situation is actually different.

I did wonder why he wasn't removed immediately for treason but I assumed it was because of Republicans having the majority and preventing it.

Fuck abc for getting us hyped about more fucking bullshit.

you're a fucking idiot

>being a 12 year old liberal shill

Top fucking kek

Yeah, that's how Verizon and Comcast felt. That's why the 2015 laws were put in place.

think of how many lives will be saved, though
all the people who will never come here for the first time
all the people suddenly and violently thrust back into the real world; no longer propped up with the crutch of shitposting
many will die, but some will never be poisoned
this is a public good, user
yes we will be sacrificed, but all the little anons coming up behind us will never know the pain and venomous pleasure of this place

Too smart for Sup Forums
