Fuck this guy with the biggest AIDS-infected cock on the planet. :dry:Quote:
Before the vote, each of the five commissioners spoke and the Republicans delivered a scathing critique of the order as overly broad, vague and unnecessary. Ajit Pai, a Republican commissioner, said the rules were government meddling in a vibrant, competitive market and were likely to deter investment, undermine innovation and ultimately harm consumers.
“The Internet is not broken,” Mr. Pai said. “There is no problem to solve.”
Lol. The republicans refered to our broadband market as "vibrant, competitive".
The core mandate of Capitalism is to take something that is freely available, then charge for it.
Take the internet, for example. Those lines running from backbones to all the computers connected to the internet are powered continually, so whether data is being transferred or not, the power consumption of the internet remains constant, yet we have data allowances and traffic shaping.
They have worked out a way to charge per gigabyte transfer, even though the cost changes marginally. All the servers connected around the globe have a nominal consumption, as do the lines that connect them. Fibre Optic is even cheaper, as light transmitted at one end does not need stage boosting, remaining constant until its arrival point.
No, the cable companies see Netflix and others as direct, superior competition. By interfering with throughput, they have managed to impede this competition so far. This was more of a deathblow to cable than they would like to admit. We'll see what dirty tricks they try next.
Netflix is owned by Disney which also owns ABC TV so you're saying that they're in the business of cutting their own throats.
Netflix is not owned by Disney. They license content on there.
The government has it's hands on the Internet now. Anyone who thinks government putting it's paws on anything as a good thing is sadly mistaken! History has proven that time and time again.
