Reminder.. Let's keep this discussion family friendly
Jonas,
The rules for the so-called Net Neutrality Law are to take affect on November 20. The GOP's effort to stop it, was an honorable one. The name "Net Neutrality" represents a set of rules that will lead to anything but. The name sounds nice and sweet, and unassuming to those that tend to judge books by their covers. And that's just what the Leftists controlling the Senate, and Barack Obama want us to believe. (That it's a wonderful and nice law)
Net Neutrality, now how could anyone not be for that? It really sounds nice, what could possibly be wrong with it?
Net Neutrality is about giving the U.S. government control of the Internet. "The Internet Control Law" would be a much more appropriate name for it, but then had the Democrats (Leftists) honestly labeled it, it wouldn't be getting so much support from the unaware masses who are willing to support a law because it has a wonderful name. "Net Neutrality", what a nice name. (A con-artist never tells you he's a con-artist.)

Guys, Verizon DOES throttle the top 5%, or at least reserves the right to do so.
I agree with this post.
I also think its funny how the insults come out when people have nothing to counter with

You're not reading what we are typing. Do yourself a favor and read this...
The word-for-word rules oh how the FCC is going base decisions on starting November 20th straight from the FCC website:
http://hraunfoss.fcc.gov/edocs_public/attachmatch/FCC-10-201A1.pdf
i. Transparency. Fixed and mobile broadband providers must disclose the network
management practices, performance characteristics, and terms and conditions of their
broadband services;
ii. No blocking. Fixed broadband providers may not block lawful content, applications,
services, or non-harmful devices; mobile broadband providers may not block lawful
websites, or block applications that compete with their voice or video telephony
services; and
iii. No unreasonable discrimination. Fixed broadband providers may not unreasonably
discriminate in transmitting lawful network traffic.
That's it. No more. No less. No Obama coming to take your porn away. This IS what is going down. The republicans today were trying to remove these rules.
Perhaps I wasn't clear in my previous question: What I meant was "why should we expect that xbox live, etc would be affected by either decision (for or against) net neutrality"?
okay so let me see if I got this right. Net Neutrality was passed by the Senate before. GOP tried to repeal it but that was defeated. Net Neutrality is what is written in post #33. So we preserve our freedom from Giant companies such as Charter, verizon, etc from taking control of us. We are happy about this except GaryCook. He is mad that Democrats passed it and GOP tried to reverse it and failed.
I have Charter Com and have to say that they suck. I'm not happy with them, but to have they have fast internet speed I need them, unless I switch to DSL... 1 year ago i was pay $30 less a month for more and better services. Now I have downgraded my packages and raised my bill. GaryCook wrote: If an Internet user is unhappy with service received by their current service provider (ATT, Comcast, etc.), they are free today to take their business elsewhere. I cant even try Time Warner or Comcast because they are not in my monopolized area. I heard Verizon FIOS is coming in the future. I cant wait to switch over.
