and there's not even enough people willing to buy non-botnet ISPs to make it work

2018-06-11 05:03:27 UTC  

muh consumer choice

2018-06-11 05:03:39 UTC  

worked for vidya, why not for utilities

2018-06-11 05:04:15 UTC  

Who here would actually buy an internet plan that didn't have access to their own website?

2018-06-11 05:05:00 UTC  

ISPs have already been advertising "access to the whole internet" to imply access to pornography for years.

2018-06-11 05:07:03 UTC  

Chances are that once NN is gone

2018-06-11 05:07:18 UTC  

There's going to be some stupid "Internet Basics" and "Wikipedia Zero" stuff

2018-06-11 05:07:27 UTC  

and barely anyone will use it because welfare internet is better

2018-06-11 05:07:43 UTC  

and then there's going to be like, no porn internet

2018-06-11 05:07:51 UTC  

and maybe some legit welfare people will be using that

2018-06-11 05:08:02 UTC  

and then there'll be porn+privacy plans

2018-06-11 05:15:23 UTC  

Ajit Pai is a GENIUS

2018-06-11 05:15:30 UTC  

His intelligence quotient is over 300.

2018-06-11 05:15:55 UTC  

He rides on fucking uniforms while spinning fidget spinners and doing random crap.

2018-06-11 05:16:01 UTC  

I mean just look at that badass.

2018-06-11 05:16:21 UTC  

And he even devised the world's greatest way to get government surveillance off of my computer

2018-06-11 05:16:27 UTC  

Doesn't get better than that

2018-06-11 05:16:36 UTC  

You're: A: Putting too much stock in companies to make pro-consumer "packages"
B: Accepting all too readily that companies should be able to classify and divide websites up into said packages

2018-06-11 05:16:45 UTC  

Or just being a trolling faggot

2018-06-11 05:16:47 UTC  

can't tell

2018-06-11 05:17:25 UTC  

Chances are that companies who actually offer decent internet won't even have "packages" because no one will actually have different internet plans.

2018-06-11 05:17:41 UTC  

They'll just start slowing down the biggest bandwidth hogs that cause service outages.

2018-06-11 05:18:04 UTC  

Slow down the sites that most people are using. Sounds smart

2018-06-11 05:18:09 UTC  

300 IQ!

2018-06-11 05:18:19 UTC  

Actually, more like just Kim Kardashian's latest porno.

2018-06-11 05:19:03 UTC  

or like

2018-06-11 05:19:07 UTC  

literally just pornhub

2018-06-11 05:19:36 UTC  

Clearly everyone in the entire United States needs to pay for the people who watch so much porn it causes service outages. Genius.

2018-06-11 05:20:48 UTC  

> implying electrical signals in a wire are a finite resource that dries up

2018-06-11 05:21:32 UTC  

Ever had to be on the same wifi as six dudes watching Youtube videos at the same time

2018-06-11 05:21:35 UTC  

and noticed that it's slow?

2018-06-11 05:22:06 UTC  

or like

2018-06-11 05:22:27 UTC  

attempted to visit a website during a DDoS attack

2018-06-11 05:22:29 UTC  

or anything

2018-06-11 05:24:29 UTC  

I have, but I fail to see how limiting users abilities to use those sites is a better solution than increasing capacity with the MILLIONS OF DOLLARS these companies rake in daily

2018-06-11 05:26:46 UTC  

So, by government force, you propose forcing ISPs to expand coverage to the entirety of the United States--including nearly-uninhabited regions of it--and forcing them to install Gigabit or some shit?

2018-06-11 05:26:50 UTC  

Are you retarded?

2018-06-11 05:27:11 UTC  

They're already building better internet infrastructure in most of the populated areas and such.

2018-06-11 05:27:27 UTC  

The problem is just that people start using more bandwidth whenever they get more access.
