| Ay it's me Ajit Pai and I just came back from strangling net neutrality to death with my bare hands. I just wanna thank Verizon, Donald Trump, and the Republican party for letting me do this. Let's discuss 2018 and how I, er no I mean how WE can ruin the future together. |

Chile was the first on the scene when it made Net neutrality provisions to its General Telecommunications Law in 2010. But Net neutrality opponents, as well as some advocates, are critical of Chile’s blanket application of the principle. On June 1, 2014, Chile put an end to giving big companies “zero-rating” access to their services—a widespread practice in developing countries. Zero-rating refers to large companies, like Facebook, being able to make deals with mobile operators to offer the most basic version of their service without charging customers for data use. The details of these deals are unclear, but big companies may pay mobile operators for the privilege. While zero-rating may be giving big companies an advantage by exposing more people to their services, Net neutrality advocates claim the practice goes against open Internet principles—giving an equal opportunity to access. Mobile Internet penetration is very low in Chile (only 24.8 percent have mobile broadband subscriptions). By blocking data-free access, Chile prevents its citizens from fully experiencing the usefulness of mobile Internet, and restricts them from previewing it before purchasing data. http://www.newsweek.com/how-net-neutrality-working-countries-have-it-269632  Please stop appropriating Chilean laws please. You don't deserve net neutrality. |

| Yeah it's really bad that a that a law that has existed since the beginning of the internet has been repealed. Oh wait. |
| All this means is that at most there will be less ".com" sites in the future, if I understood the issue correctly. |

Drunk_Samurai said: Yeah it's really bad that a that a law that has existed since the beginning of the internet has been repealed. Oh wait. It was basically a law that stated the one ISP in your area you can pay for service to can't throttle your speeds in favor of other sites. Btw, they can already throttle your speeds for sites deemed illegal if they want. It is just I think most US ISPs don't give a flying fuck about Japan's Anime revenue.

| yeah Have you seen Star Wars Episode 3? shit reminds me this scene the thing is , not only Americans should worry about this , cause once US approve this , don't doubt many countries will follow them and kill net neutrality . The only thing that makes me feel a bit better is that pirate sites will never die , they won't let it happen , it's our ray of light at this moment cause I don't think "big" companies such as Facebook or Netflix will do a shit about it ... |

You don't need net neutrality. Yeah, I know. Since I pointed out not many countries even have such laws and if they do, they are even worded differently. Like, the EU is currently in a campaign to charge Facebook and whatnot for allowing free speech. Or UK arresting people for Nazi dog jokes. There is already a social media and ISP monopoly anyways. Hopefully, if this turns out to be a terrible thing we can reverse it. But end of history and all that jazz you know. DARPA invented the internet anyways, you all have military industrial complex blood on your hands. |

Drunk_Samurai said: My point is that the internet has existed before that law existed. You don't need net neutrality. Nico- said: I hate these lazy ass responses so much. If nothing is going to change then why is the FCC changing the rules of the internet in the first place?Net Neutrality didn't even exist before 2015. Nothing is going to change. Get off Reddit, stop fearmongering, and realize that you aren't going to have to start paying $0.99 per post on MAL or whatever the latest bugman myth is. We didn't need net neutrality back then because ISPs weren't as invasive back then. It's 2017; however, and ISP corporations finally figured out ways to make more money while fucking us in the ass. Net neutrality is an inherent good. There's literally no reason to repeal it unless there was a motive to do so such as charging tiered services and throttling speeds to make a bigger buck from customers. I don't even browse reddit dumbass. MADISON RIVER: In 2005, North Carolina ISP Madison River Communications blocked the voice-over-internet protocol (VOIP) service Vonage. Vonage filed a complaint with the FCC after receiving a slew of customer complaints. The FCC stepped in to sanction Madison River and prevent further blocking, but it lacks the authority to stop this kind of abuse today. COMCAST: In 2005, the nation’s largest ISP, Comcast, began secretly blocking peer-to-peer technologies that its customers were using over its network. Users of services like BitTorrent and Gnutella were unable to connect to these services. 2007 investigations from the Associated Press, the Electronic Frontier Foundation and others confirmed that Comcast was indeed blocking or slowing file-sharing applications without disclosing this fact to its customers. TELUS: In 2005, Canada’s second-largest telecommunications company, Telus, began blocking access to a server that hosted a website supporting a labor strike against the company. Researchers at Harvard and the University of Toronto found that this action resulted in Telus blocking an additional 766 unrelated sites. AT&T: From 2007–2009, AT&T forced Apple to block Skype and other competing VOIP phone services on the iPhone. The wireless provider wanted to prevent iPhone users from using any application that would allow them to make calls on such “over-the-top” voice services. The Google Voice app received similar treatment from carriers like AT&T when it came on the scene in 2009. WINDSTREAM: In 2010, Windstream Communications, a DSL provider with more than 1 million customers at the time, copped to hijacking user-search queries made using the Google toolbar within Firefox. Users who believed they had set the browser to the search engine of their choice were redirected to Windstream’s own search portal and results. MetroPCS: In 2011, MetroPCS, at the time one of the top-five U.S. wireless carriers, announced plans to block streaming video over its 4G network from all sources except YouTube. MetroPCS then threw its weight behind Verizon’s court challenge against the FCC’s 2010 open internet ruling, hoping that rejection of the agency’s authority would allow the company to continue its anti-consumer practices. PAXFIRE: In 2011, the Electronic Frontier Foundation found that several small ISPs were redirecting search queries via the vendor Paxfire. The ISPs identified in the initial Electronic Frontier Foundation report included Cavalier, Cogent, Frontier, Fuse, DirecPC, RCN and Wide Open West. Paxfire would intercept a person’s search request at Bing and Yahoo and redirect it to another page. By skipping over the search service’s results, the participating ISPs would collect referral fees for delivering users to select websites. AT&T, SPRINT and VERIZON: From 2011–2013, AT&T, Sprint and Verizon blocked Google Wallet, a mobile-payment system that competed with a similar service called Isis, which all three companies had a stake in developing. EUROPE: A 2012 report from the Body of European Regulators for Electronic Communications found that violations of Net Neutrality affected at least one in five users in Europe. The report found that blocked or slowed connections to services like VOIP, peer-to-peer technologies, gaming applications and email were commonplace. VERIZON: In 2012, the FCC caught Verizon Wireless blocking people from using tethering applications on their phones. Verizon had asked Google to remove 11 free tethering applications from the Android marketplace. These applications allowed users to circumvent Verizon’s $20 tethering fee and turn their smartphones into Wi-Fi hot spots. By blocking those applications, Verizon violated a Net Neutrality pledge it made to the FCC as a condition of the 2008 airwaves auction. AT&T: In 2012, AT&T announced that it would disable the FaceTime video-calling app on its customers’ iPhones unless they subscribed to a more expensive text-and-voice plan. AT&T had one goal in mind: separating customers from more of their money by blocking alternatives to AT&T’s own products. VERIZON: During oral arguments in Verizon v. FCC in 2013, judges asked whether the phone giant would favor some preferred services, content or sites over others if the court overruled the agency’s existing open internet rules. Verizon counsel Helgi Walker had this to say: “I’m authorized to state from my client today that but for these rules we would be exploring those types of arrangements.” Walker’s admission might have gone unnoticed had she not repeated it on at least five separate occasions during arguments. |

| Cash rules everything around me C.R.E.A.M., get the money Dollar dollar bill, y'all |
| This is awful news. Anyone who thinks this isn't a big deal or don't care because they don't live in the US. 1. You're a fucking idiot. 2. You better believe ISP's around the world will follow suit if this passes and becomes law. You think they're not watching this and already coming up with how to pull it off in their respective countries? As usual. A Democracy doesn't mean anything when it's corrupted by big corporations and big money politics. Get ready to pay more, and get ready for your ISP's to tell you what sites you can and can't access, and how fast they'll be if they are. |
