AHAHAHAHAHHAHAAHAHAHHAAHAH
Nigger, most people only have AT MOST 3 ISPs to choose from in their area, even in my hometown (one of the larger cities in Massachusetts) I only get to choose between Comcast and Verizon. Charter can't even set their shit up in my city thanks to a fucking contract that Comcast has with the municipalities, which artificially limits which ISPs are allowed into the market.
Fuck off with this shit, most people in the US fucking WISH they had 5 or more ISPs to choose from.
>>
>>134765763
>implying anyone in the US can choose between just 3 ISPs at any time, let alone 2500
>implying Verizon is "1 out of 2500"

Do you even know how much infrastructure Verizon owns? That's like saying Comcast is just "1 out of 2500". I'm lucky that Cox isn't shit at the moment and has been good to me because literally my only other option is AT&T who charges $60 for 10mbps vs the 65 I get from Cox for the same price. Cox has a monopoly in this area just like many others, same as Comcast and Verizon.

If they were allowed to do whatever they want, you can't just "switch to another ISP :^)" because there ARENT ANY NEARBY you dumbfucks, if there are their plans are extremely limited because of the big provider around that owns all the infrastructure.
>>

???
Comcast has had 300 GB data caps for years, only recently did they increase it to 1 TB because the FCC was breathing down their neck.
Comcast is not a proper business, they don't stimulate proper free market competition, none of the major ISPs do, if given the chance they WILL collude, which is why these regulations and net neutrality exist.
Getting rid of net neutrality will only make sense when we split up the regional monopolies like we did with the Bell System back in the 80s.

Cox Communications caps their standard plan at 1TB and is a mainstream provider, not some shitty rural satellite. So does Comcast (not sure what #). You have no idea what you're talking about.
>>
>>134766842
Literally this. That's why they put data caps in the first place.
Just because you get a maximum of 40 Mbps, doesn't mean the whole neighbor gets access to the same speed at the same time. There's a limit to the hardware. If people are using Netflix and killing the speed for everyone around them, they need to cap it.

I'm OK with killing net neutrality, but they need to allow competition in the ISP market in exchange. You can't have 1 or 2 companies controlling internet access and it's content.
>>
>>134767047
First of all that wasn't me, but also, the average cost of highspeed internet is disingenuous because our rural population is even by proportion much larger. A median comparison would be better. Plus our average and median disposable income is higher.

>>134767280
My info was out of date, but you're completely wrong in thinking that the FCC has your interests at heart more than the ISPs. I would like to see more monopolies busted but that not happening does not mean we should be using massive and vaguely defined increases in the power of the federal censorship committee as a stopgap
>>
>>134767378
>you fucking idiot. who do you think that cost will be passed onto, the massive data corporations or you, the consumer?
The ISPs have proposed charging those companies, not creating specific website packages for consumers. Not only would the latter be really shitty optics, it would be technologically difficult. If netflix has to increase its monthly fee then it will. But also internet prices would likely marginally decrease
>>
>>134767606
>that doesn't mean that the whole neighborhood gets the whole speed

Is that my fucking problem? I paid for 40mbps and so did the rest of the neighborhood if not even better speeds than me, if they can't max out everyone at that speed then don't offer it. Simple as that dumbass leaf. The companies deserve no sympathy. This is a hole they dug, they can't just cap their way out of it to get around their own fuckup.
>>
>>134767731
>My info was out of date, but you're completely wrong in thinking that the FCC has your interests at heart more than the ISPs.
I don't think ANY of them have my interests at heart, but ISPs are going to be fucking me over more than the FCC, so either split up the monopolies or keep net neutrality intact.
I don't like the idea of given the government so much power, but I hate the idea of giving huge corporations just as much power even more, especially when they have such insane regional monopolies.

ISPs are companies so public opinion is important. The FCC is a bureaucracy full of unelected employees and they are not accountable to anyone at all.

"Net neutrality" is fucking stupid. Why shouldn't people who use more be required to pay more? If you use more electricity or water than your neighbor, you have to pay more. And bandwidth is a limited resource just like electricity.

That said, the ISPs that took public money to expand their capacity and instead just pocketed it (like comcast) should have their CEOs and board members publicly executed.

No, you are paying for a "maximum of 40 Mbps". You get whatever they give you at the time.

Are you saying downloading my shows doesn't use bandwidth? Fuck off with your communist bullshit faggot. I pay for my service, I should be able to do whatever I want with said allotted bandwidth. Fuck nu/pol/ + t_d for allowing this shit to be accepted. If 4chan took a lot of bandwidth for some reason and they were throttling it I'm sure you'd come here crying about it, but because Netflix/Hulu/Amazon Video are for le normies, you'll gladly bend over for corporate cock to throttle it just to see normies mad. One day they will come for your shit. Block 4chan because of obscene content or some bullshit reason, fine you for using a VPN to access it, and you'll cry and cry. But no, it's ok, as long as you got your revenge on normies.

If you aren't received service that you paid for, that's one thing. It's another thing to demand an infinite pipe at a low price. That's not really feasible.

>No it's not.
You have no idea what you're talking about.
>>
>>134767942
>>134768170
oh come on. we've known how telecoms work for how many years now? not exactly an industry known for delivering quality services to the consumer. now big data is in the mix. anyone with a modicum of common sense can see where this is headed and what it's about. they WILL jew the everliving shit out of you because they can. they can do it easily and you won't be able to avoid it because you will have no choice in the matter.

if these goddamn regional monopolies were broken up and municipal fiber initiatives (ala the lucent gigabit project in chattanooga) not quashed, then the conversation would be different. the reality, unfortunately, is not so ideal.
>>
>>134768340
Because unlike water and electricity, I am paying for an allotted amount of throughput. I am not paying for the amount of data that I use over time, contrary to popular comparison that you're making.

I am not "using more", I am simply taking advantage of the rate of data coming through that I paid for already.

>>134769036
Oh sure, that explains why we had to pass NN in the first place right? Id rather risk the government blocking a website (which is not lawful btw) than a corporation being able to do so at any given time because they have been given free reign over their enormous monopoly that I cannot escape due to ISPs not being able to enter the market because of said monopoly.
>>
>>134769309
>If you aren't received service that you paid for, that's one thing. It's another thing to demand an infinite pipe at a low price.
What the hell are you talking about?
If I'm being throttled I am 100% not receiving the service I paid for.
If I paid more than you, and I get better service, there is absolutely nothing wrong with that, I shouldn't have to pay even MORE because you just so happened to pay for an inferior service.
>>134769299
Bandwidth is not at all a limited resource like electricity, bandwidth is only limited in terms of allocation, not in terms of production.
>>
>>134769542
>I shouldn't have to pay even MORE because you just so happened to pay for an inferior service.

So basically, you want lower paying users to SUBSIDIZE your higher cost, more wiring needed internet. Fuck off.

>>
>>134769309
>an infinite pipe

But that's the point fucking retard, infrastructure can deliver data constantly, indefinitely and it will not stress it. What stresses it is the speed. You really don't have any idea what you're talking about because you're comparing two totally different things. I totally understand not offering high speed data at a constant rate 24/7, I am simply demanding that if they cannot handle that load, then spend the money you charge me to upgrade your equipment or offer rates that they can sustain. Data is not a finite resource, I should not be throttled because I'm using all of the bandwidth I paid for. If your network cannot handle everyone maxing out their allotted bandwidth speed at the same time, then you shouldn't be offering it.

To elaborate, with an ISP's plan, to compare it to a standard utility, you are not paying for the amount of water you drain into your cup, you are paying for unlimited water but the water comes out faster depending on what plan you choose.

I should not be charged more because I leave my tap on all the time, because I am not paying for the water itself, I am paying for the rate at which the water is dispensed to me.

I should not be charged extra because I am utilizing 100% of what I am paying for. Anyone who does not use 100% of their plan is simply wasting that speed, hence wasting money. It is not my problem that my torrenting or video streaming stresses your network. Sounds like you need to upgrade your equipment to get with the times. I am paying for X mbps, I expect to get no more and no less than that for the price I pay per month, that the ISP agreed to serve.

Why should the ISP charge the website or service provider I am attempting to access, using the service I am paying the ISP for?

They aren't selling me access to a selection of websites; they sell me a connection, usually rated in an up-to download speed, potentially with a maximum download limit (there may be fair-usage clauses involved also).

What I choose to use that connection for, is my own business (within the law). If I choose to use Netflix, why should that usage of the service I have bought be treated differently to if I was just downloading a file of equal size over an equal amount of time?

The answer, of course, is greed. The ISP wants to get a cheque from me, a cheque from Netflix, and a cheque from anyone who wants to access my browsing history (they lobbied against strong opt-in rules for sharing that data). They are rent-seeking, rather than innovating, and cry to politicians about how they have been cutting investment in infrastructure because of how cruel and harsh giving customers the service that they have been selling is. Of course, they have been telling their investors (to whom it is a federal offence to lie to) that everything is fine.

Of course I don't think you should take any dick up your ass, but doing it through the process of the law is simply the best choice we have. You don't have to give government total control over private infrastructure, but you can at least find legislation that can outlaw throttling for this shit, and data caps. The ISPs don't give a fuck about you and neither does the government, but the rule of law does, and if you get legislation (such as NN) to pass, you can prevent this shit and also save your rectum from gape. Getting rid of the safeguards that keep the ISPs balls out of your soup is just plain stupid and we will all regret it soon enough if Pajeet gets them taken down.

>Pfft, you don't NEED internet
Then you should be willing to lead by example, I'd be all for removing net neutrality wherever you live as a nice test run.

if there were three big restaurants through which all other "competing" restaurants had to purchase resources, and those three big restaurants regularly engaged in anti-competitive price fixing and turf division, then yes: shitting on customers would indeed create a new market.

>>134775260
It definitely creates more money that the ISPs strongarm from anyone wanting to deliver out a service to consumers just because they see demand in that service that they can jew money out of, is that simply put enough for you retard?

Streaming vs downloading
Streaming produces more strain with the same file size

>>134776291
How do you figure that?

Also, who gives a shit about network strain? Is it my problem that their shit network can't live up to the task of today's internet services? Sounds like maybe they should improve infrastructure instead of sitting with their thumbs up their ass raking in cash.

My service never got throttled before Net Neutrality. And the keyword in this article is accused.

The main battle is with regional government. Local government has the control in what ISP is allowed in their region. Mobile network should be fined if they dont offer service you pay for. Everyone agrees this should be part of the law.

Its about who you want to have more power - Google, Netflix, Facebook, etc... or Time Warner, Cox, Att.

Its all the same people, corporations fighting over power.

My data cap was lowered because of N.N and expansion has been slow in my region. Now my data went up 1tb and gigablast is coming in my region very soon.

Regardless, there are so many groups, companies, the government who are hellbent on censoring, whether in the name of protecting profits or ideology.

I think it's more about who can be more easily replaced if they fuck up.
If I don't like Google, Netflix, or Kikebook, there are dozens of alternatives, as well as piracy.
If I don't like any of the big ISPs, chances are there are no other options in my area, so it's a lot harder to tell them to fuck off when they try to bend me over.

Government control would be the government choosing what websites you can, or cannot, access.

Net Neutrality is the government telling ISPs to treat consumer data usage as equal, regardless of the source or purpose of that data.
>>
>>134779248
This. Retards in this thread equate any kind of requirement for equal treatment as handing over the internet to the government.

>I think it's more about who can be more easily replaced if they fuck up.

this guy gets it. if facebook suddenly wanted your ssn then people would dump it and move on to something else. now if your isp started selling "access packages" like cable for internet you'd be totally fucked.

>>134761776
Yes, because providers just grow on trees! I have ONE, and don't live in the country or a tiny town, either. Fuck yourself.

>>134757939
Honestly im just glad they are targeting netflix and other normie sites first. worst would have been if they throttled less known sites only, i dont even know what to call people who have been on the internet a long time and know about all the nice sites anymore, leet haxxors? This way net neutrality will get some sopport among normal people.

Surely if the isp are for net neutrality I as a gender neutral anrcho communist should be for it too right? I mean its 2017 and I only trust what late night comedians say.
