>If the FCC had passed the modified cable industry plan, consumers would have been guaranteed cable company video apps on streaming boxes like the Apple TV and Roku, or anything that runs iOS, Windows, or Android. But despite having a 3-2 Democratic majority, Wheeler wasn't able to get enough votes at the commission because Democrat Jessica Rosenworcel withheld support.

Sounds like you should be mad at that chick

>from shitting on the street to shitting on Amerilards
can anyone stop these madmen?

It's the isp's network, they can do with it as they wish.

>>58655476
As long as someone defends the free market and shits on the leftist agenda I'm defending him.
POO IN THE COMMUNIST MANIFESTO.

>>58655467
I think people feel as that if they didn't have to be forced to rent the cable box then their bill will be cheaper but in reality cable companies would just increase your bill to make up for the loss income.

Also I agree Ars is shit, they turned to shit about 5-6 years ago when most of their writers stopped being people from the tech industry and started being English BA/BS grads.

>/pol/tards who had never heard of net neutrality before yesterday are suddenly experts
We're about to get dicked even harder by the Jewish cable companies, but at least the rest of the stuff Trump is doing is is pretty entertaining.

>believing in the free market utopia
You're just as bad as a communist.

>>58655756
I may not be an expert but I do know that the free market is the best solution to any problem and that I trust donald trump.
Pai was formerly a fighter for Verizon, whose rights were being infringed upon by the cucks in Washington. He's very familiar with the free market and telecommunications.

If he dislikes net neutrality then he certainly has a reason and knows why, and I trust his judgement to be sound and in the best interests of the people.

what's a cable box? a thing that converts the signal from the cable provider to a scart/hdmi/analog signal?

>>58655805
I don't know how you can think any of their rights are being infringed upon when they effectively have a monopoly over half of the country, even more so in rural areas.

>>58655467
It would be a free market if these ISPs didn't have guaranteed territories as passed by congress. They can repeal those territories too once they get done with all this shit.

Are Americans afraid they'll be labelled as commies if they're not in favour of a completely free market? I can't imagine people be that deluded in reality but peer pressure can be some heavy shit.

>>58655467
In France for years we vas à few companies for mobile carrer and one date, a new one came. They started to sell à 20€/m unlimited texte, phone call and 3gb data + unlimited but slower.
Turns out for years other companies made a deal to sell 40+€/m for some shitty two years contracts without unlimited phone or data
(((Free market))) is shit when companies do such things. If no one tell them to fuck off, thé customers will be fucked over and over

the "move out of the country" plan. close to finishing school and my degree has the flexibility to find jobs anywhere in the world. weighing my options now on the best country to live in. looking for a small nation that is sensible.

With VPNs, this couldn't ever work unless you blocked them entirely. Plus, with the number of cross domain requests the average site is using, it's near impossible to partition the internet like that. This kind of thing is just fear mongering.
