Netflix CEO Reed Hastings made it abundantly clear that the company isn't going to rush to consumers aid as the FCC prepares to gut net neutrality. "We had to carry the water when we were growing up and we were small," Hastings said, "and now other companies need to be on that leading edge," stating also that "where net neutrality is really important is the Netflix of 10 years ago."

Translation: We're so big now we can use Net Neutrality to make sure no competitors can afford to challenge us.
This is basically Hulu/Netflix/Amazon slamming the door shut behind them.
>>60784070
You just figured that out? Netflix only cared about net neutrality because they didn't want to pay their peering agreement. Now they are a big company, and realized that net neutrality is actually bad for their business model.
>>60784070
They already paid like $50 million to the isps for throttling them not that long ago.

Welp, as the link says, Netflix and the like are now big companies that have to rely on predatory measures to stay up there. It's just the nature of things: not even SIlicon Valley can stop the rentier market.
But if Netflix makes you angry, Google should scare you, as they are themselves a ISP and you can bet they'll be the first to stick a dildo down our throats for our wallets, or even worse, for our personal data.
Should I cancel Netflix and switch to Amazon?

Don't you have store fronts to throw rubbish bins through while you 'peacefully protest'?
>>60786837
Popcorn Time, Exodus and CCloud TV are all you need

Cheers my man, I'm on it.
>>60786865
idk where u got the idea that communists are for peaceful protests. I hate liberals probably just as much as u bruh.
>>60786941
It was a joke about how the Liberals and Antifa and Communist groups always say they're just peacefully protesting while there are videos going up all over the place of them rioting and causing property damage.
>>60786941
>he's unironically a communist
>>60787005
naw, thats just liberals. most antifa & communists will both say that propaganda of the deed / destruction of banks and starbucks windows is pretty fun + increases media coverage. Either way, its hilarious that netflix is on board with anti nn now, along with all the other large corporations. Cuz fuck the people, competition, etc etc they want complete control. Shits gonna be real good for business.
We, the europoors, have some sort of net neutrality. But somehow it doesn't manage to convince me that internet is going to stay free and open.
