Seems to strike on a few of the points I was talking about earlier today
Choice quote:
Here is what Google actually does. Google (and other large enterprises that deliver content to end users โ think Netflix, Facebook) maintains its own global network infrastructure, and peers directly with ISPs at internet exchange points. Google explains this in more detail on their own website.
Google is connected to the New York International Exchange (NYIIX) and the London Internet Exchange (LINX). If you go to the websites of either one of these internet exchange points (New York, London) you can see their full list of members.
What does this mean?
This means that Google is not a customer of an ISP. Google simply connects to these internet exchange points, and here it peers with service providers.
This way, Google has far more control over how its content is delivered to users. If Google wants to treat YouTube video packets differently than the packets transferred for uploading Google Docs files, it can.
Net Neutrality laws will not affect Google because Google does not pay transit providers to deliver content to users. It peers with them.
"Google is privy to the fact that smaller companies, competitors, and start-ups bereft of the resources and capital available to build a global network infrastructure and peer with providers, must instead become customers of higher tier service providers to reach end users.
And what better way to stifle competition in the market, than have these smaller companies subject to a bevy of regulations youโre free of."
Ive been trying to get this this throught some peoples 5ft thick skulls recently but they just cant understand it.
No, Net Neutralities protection is for the consumer end of it
so AT&T, Comcast, etc etc, cant see a packet coming from google and say "hey, they arent giving us any money for this, lets slow them down"
be it via route
Comcast would also peer with NYIIX in this example so they can receive content from google quickly
but once Comcast has that packet, it can treat it in any way it feels
because without net neutrality, a consumer ISP could decide a open a new business model by saying "lets charge the website themselves for the bandwidth their users consume"
send off a ton of bills to facebook, google, yahoo, bing, and all the other websites
obviously they see it as a joke and dont pay the bill
so their service gets limited to 2mbps
so any facebook packet, or google packet or whatever as soon as it hits comcast's network, gets slowed to 2mbps
In the end, we will have to obfuscate and encrypt traffic.
encrpytion wouldnt matter at that point
Tor
sure, something that hides the url you are trying to connect to
but you could just throttle all tor traffic
regardless of source or destination
Yeah, throttle with whitelisting.
but this already sounds like a longer fight
when its far easier to just stop it ๐
I'm still evaluating my position in NN after being a big supporter years ago, but this stuff http://www.dailywire.com/news/24009/net-neutrality-protesters-target-fcc-chairmans-hank-berrien crosses a line for me.
When people bring those who have nothing to with an issue in, especially their opponents family, I lose all respect for them.
When you become known as the guy who fucked everyone's internet, you better have bodyguards 24/7.
That's the problem with being on the same side of an issue with leftist sociopaths
^ I'm generally really conservative on some things, but I don't think this should have to become another "conservative v.s. liberal" issue.
I don't think it's very liberal to say that access to information is something people should receive equally.
And it really worries me that some people assume they don't need to speak up because someone else will do it for them, that's how these kinda things get made into laws.
What law?
This was a fcc regulation
I'm not just talking about America.
But the FCC killing net neutrality would definitely set a precedent.
Wut
The fcc made nn in the first place
The internet exists in other countries and they have their own stances on it.
America would influence that if they removed it themselves.
How do you think people would react if the FCC succeeds?
They already did.
It was wrong when the fcc created a regulation on isp without congressional legislation in the first place
It is just righting itself
And the FCC chairman wasn't even elected, right?
Just appointed by Drumpf.
Are you even serious
Ajit Pai is the Chairman of the Federal Communications Commission. He was designated Chairman by President Donald J. Trump in January 2017. He had previously served as Commissioner at the FCC, appointed by then-President Barack Obama and confirmed unanimously by the United States Senate in May 2012.
How is that- not serious?
>Unironicly saying Drumpf
i'm not anti trump at all, i just said it because it was once his family surname [but never his name]
i don't ride his dick or anything but he's not the "worst president ever"
not rascist @ all
Is Warren a race realist? I thought biology wasn't real
it's a social construct
we're all the same
u are me and i am you
So you are also a furry?
<:think_cartoon:378717098618388491>
Fascism came to America when we started imperialism
I like how racist that flag is, because it lacks the brown and black stripes. <:sargonpepe:382978608894836747>
The Fascist conception of the State is all-embracing; outside of it no human or spiritual values can exist, much less have value. Thus understood, Fascism is totalitarian, and the Fascist Stateโa synthesis and a unit inclusive of all valuesโinterprets, develops, and potentiates the whole life of a people
Hmmmmm
What in fact is Fascism? A socialism emancipated from democracy. A trade unionism free of the chains of the class struggle had imposed on Italian labour. A methodical and successful will to bring together in a same fascio all the human factors of national production ... A determination to approach, to threat, to resolve the worker question in itself ... and to unite unions in corporations, to coordinate them, to incorporate the proletariat into the hereditary and traditional activities of the historical State of the Fatherland
Hmmmmmm
Its almost like fascism has become a meaningless term because you use it for everything
trippy

I cannot wait to hear him and Ruben talk
I am going to go to that talk if they ever put any info out about it
I know I can't wait either. Is it not in Rubin's studio?
Wait , he and Rubin are actually having a talk?
It is happening at Stanford
