Yes, builds competition

The exact opposite. Throttling competitors to already existing large businesses, because the large businesses have the money to pay up to be unthrottled suppresses competition.

>The existing no-throttling rule "bans the impairment or degradation of lawful Internet traffic or use of a non-harmful device, subject to reasonable network management practices," the NPRM says. "We seek comment on whether this rule is still necessary, particularly for smaller providers. How does the rule benefit consumers, and what are its costs? When is 'throttling' harmful to consumers? Does the no-throttling rule prevent providers from offering broadband Internet access service with differentiated prioritization that benefits consumers?

Do you think that if net neutrality regulations were not in place, we'd have more competition in the ISP market? Do you think people are happy with their current internet service? More competition would be welcome as it is in the ISP world, the problem is that it has an insane barrier to entry.

Why should a Tier 1 designation decide whether what an ISP can charge for its services? Sounds like communism.

It's really hard to objectively compare internet cost in different countries. It's not too uncommon to have the government own parts of the isp business here. How much of it really is built from user fees and how much of it is way or other tax funded? In Finland the whole thing is built on top of FUNET which is university backbone network. The end result here seems decent but is it good value for the money spend I've no idea.

Because they arent connecting for netflix, or to netflix. They are connecting to tier 1 isp's to get the traffic from the rest of the internet to serve to their customers.

as for an analogy, comcast is your local postmaster, tier 1 isp's are the USPS CEO's of the internet. would you like it if that specific local postmaster and the united states postal service demanded payment? neither did netflix.
>>

>people on /g/ actually think ISPs are going to be able to charge people to access different websites when net neutrality gets fucked
I guarantee you that if any ISP implements some DirectTV-tier shit where it charges people extra to access sites like Netflix, Twitter, Facebook, Reddit, and even 4chan, people would just tell them fuck you and not use the internet instead.
>>
>>60121299
Did you vote for trump? Well congrats, you personally signed your ass on for this wild ride.

But if you really want to stop the tomfuckery, net neutrality is an easy two words to remember to tell the FCC, your representatives, and whoever else can vote and call their representatives. Do it now, and do it loud.

Are you sure? I can bet that a lot of retarded fucks would pay. Look at all the retards still paying for cable, when you can literally watch whatever you want for free. And there's many that can't afford cable, but it doesn't affect the cable companies much, they're still thriving.
>>

No thanks. I have lots of money on Comcast, Verizon, and AT&T stock. I'd gladly pay $10 a month more for internet service if I'll get 50x that in returns at the end of the year.

The internet survived without NN for decades. Why is it suddenly going to turn into a dystopian nightmare because we don't add more regulations?

Go protest in washington one saturday. Have their office on speed dial, and call them literally any time a news article pops up about net neutrality. and post to the FCC website with comments when they open for a comment period.

But seriously, attend a protest about net neutrality in washington. That is the one that is really getting the fire under their asses.

Cmon, innovation is not always good, and ISPs are a prime example how you don't always want innovation. especially in a utility service, which ISPs are in all but name.

ps, zero rating is a clever way of saying "I'm going to charge you for non approved services" which is one step away from >>60120322

Uh, no. 8 years ago, if I wanted to watch a video, I had to go home and use my broadband. Today I can watch HD video nearly fucking anywhere.

We still need more investment in broadband. Yeah, companies are going to make profits, but good motivation for them to keep investing. With NN we're going to get a static internet system that will not get faster (no fiber for you) and little innovation/investment in the wireless space which is still very young and immature.
>>
>>60121682
>VOLTE
>Im going to use a technicality to claim my point
A service provider using its own service to deliver the same service in a different manner. WOW, SO NEW, SO DIFFERENT, SO ZERO RATING.
>>
>>60121665
Zero rating has been amazing for the very poor of the world. Their choice is a restricted internet or no internet whatsoever. And zero rating is no different than what we had with AOL 20 years ago, and it didn't lead to your nightmare scenario.

No it isnt, and you know that. zero rating is saying "this data oriented service wont use up your data cap!" like spotify, pandora, and apple music. but others will, like google play, youtube, and youtube.

Look I'm in favor of NN but how the fuck is this anti-free market? If Spotify wants to be zero rating they can pay the toll. Nobody is bending ISPs over and buttfucking them to make Pandora but not Spotify zero rating.

How? If Youtube and Netflix paid your ISP for premium bandwidth allowance, they'll be fast while everything else is slow af. How does this help you? How does this do anything for competition other than prevent it?

If I want to start a new streaming service, now I not only need to find decent content for it, but I also need to get the funding to pay off ISPs not to throttle me into the ground.

And yes it MIGHT make Netflix less laggy for a some customers, but the correct solution is network upgrades, or asking the top percent of bandwidth hogging customers to cut back a bit or shift their hogging to off-peak hours.

Um yes this rule is still necessary. If I'm paying for 100 mbit internet, I expect 100 mbit unless the remote server is slow or there's actual congestion. Not 100 mbit for Facebook, Google, Netflix and Youtube, 10 mbit for everything else.
