Why not neither?

>>383046557
It will have zero impact.

The only impact it will have is on Netflix, because Comcast owns Hulu and will therefore will throttle Netflix streaming speeds to make Hulu a more attractive option.

No ISP gives two shits about which videogames you play, it's not worth their time to sniff packet sources and throttle accordingly for videogame data.

Your ISP will be able to deny you access to many websites, hell, they'll probably lock everything outside of yahoo, youtube and reddit behind an additional fee; Sites such as Netflix, Crunchyroll etc will get fucked because cable/internet providers see them as direct competition.

I gotta hand it to the Republicans, they get their whole base to cheer every time they wanna ram their ass. And every time the base says "this ass ramming hurts" reps just say"blame the dems" and the Republican base actually does it, its fucking incredible.

>>383049974
The point is that they could, but why WOULD they?

There's no advantage to throttling all of your service except for specific game data. What do they gain? Arguably they could use the threat of throttling to extort money from game publishers who wanted to avoid it, but that'd be terrible business because most couldn't pay.

If you throttle EVERYTHING, your internet service speed is just percieved as slower, and you lose business. It's only sensible to throttle one or two things, especially if those things rely on extremely high data speed, to promote alternatives (see: throttle Netflix to promote Hulu).

If there were an ISP that owned the CoD franchise, Overwatch fans would have reason to be alarmed. Otherwise, I see no business advantage to non-neutral treatment of game data.

Too bad yurop's trying to sever ties with USA after Mr. Trump's term.

On May 16, 2018, Robert moved to a new city. He was excited to start his new job, and lay down roots in the community. He wasn't worried about losing connections to his old friends, because Robert would play games with them every thursday night. Robert arrived at his new house and called the only ISP that services his house, "BIG ISP Co." They sent a technician the next day to set up his Internet service.
"Okay, I've got your modem plugged in, now I just need to know what services you use." The tech looked down at his tablet and cleared his throat, preparing to read from a list. "Just stop me when you hear a service you would like to use." He began to read, "BIG Movies, BIG Music, BIG Storage."
"No, I don't use those, I didn't have BIG Internet at my last house." Robert replied, "I think it would be faster if I just gave you a list of what I plan to use."
"That might be a problem, especially if your services don't fit in a BIG Internet bundle we already offer."
"What do you mean?"
"Well, do you watch movies online from services like Netflix and Amazon Prime?"
"Yes, of course I do."
"Okay, we'll add the streaming movies package." The tech checked off a box, and the monthly price for Robert's quote got higher at the bottom of the his tablet. "What about television, do you catch up on missed episodes online?
"Yes, of course! I can't be around all the time when shows are on!"
"No problem. I'll add the streaming television package too." The tech checked another box, and Robert's quote got higher again. "How about music, you said you don't use BIG Music, do you want to listen to another internet radio service?"
"I have a ton of Spotify playlists! Pretty much one for every occasion."
"Okay, we'll need to add the Music Streaming package, then." Another box checked, another increase to Robert's monthly subscription cost. "Now, how about games, do you use BIG Games to play with friends?"

"Yes."
With each "yes," the price of Robert's monthly fee went up.

"Battle.net?"
"Yes."
"Star Citizen?"
"Yes."
"Candy Crush?"
"No. I don't play Candy Crush."
"Great, you're going to love the savings of not paying for Facebook games."
"I'm not so sure about that." Robert looked at the tablet. The long list of third party services had come with service charges that ballooned his rate to twice what he expected to pay. "My last service provider didn't charge me extra to use Netflix or Spotify or Steam. This seems like a racket!"
"Well, sir, you're welcome to use a competitor, then. LARGENET services the other side of town. I think their service charges are pretty much the same, so if you care about it so much, you're welcome to move. I won't keep you here."
"That's it, I can pay your fees or move?! Those are my only options?" Robert was incredulous. "This can't be legal!"
"Completely legal, sir. Net Neutrality is a thing of the past. I am a BIG ISP Co shareholder, and I would be furious if they weren't making all the money they could. LARGENET does it. GIANT CONNECT does it. We have to do it to compete!"
"Fine" Robert said, "lets just sign this thing."
"Hold your horses, Cowboy" The technician guffawed at the idea that he was finished. "We haven't even talked about your data cap yet."

>>383049154
Comcast basically wants to play hardball with Google and Netflix. They represent over half of all internet bandwidth, and so ISPs can say, "hey, we're gonna throttle you unless you do what we want." The thing is, neither side can really play too hard. ISPs actually shitting on something massively popular would have a huge blowback, even as shitty as ISP selection is in the country. Simultaneously, Google/Netflix can't completely tell them to fuck off because even a little harm to their business is a ton of lost money. They HATE the idea of being forced to cooperate with anyone though, and so Google especially has spearheaded massive pushes towards net neutrality.

The reality is that even if you viewed ISPs as a serious problem, net neutrality doesn't actually solve anything. For example, Comcast started its own streaming service, obviously in competition with others. However, the data doesn't count against people's bandwidth quotes because it goes through lines reserved for cable TV. Net neutrality can't touch this. Meanwhile some cell phone providers offer music streaming that doesn't count against their consumer's data plans. Net neutrality can't do anything there either.

There are a million games they can play, and net neutrality is a solution looking for a problem while missing the ones actually present. It doesn't stop the near-monopoly granted to ISPs by local governments. It doesn't stop them from imposing stricter bandwidth caps to hurt Google/Netflix that way. All it does is give the federal government a little more of a foot into controlling it all. It would be better to decide right out of the gate if you want the government to have zero control of internet, or if you view it as a public good that has to be completely federally controlled. This in-between does no good.

Nobody lives in a place with only ISP anymore. It used to be true, but now (very nearly) everyone has a cell phone with satellite internet access. And even if your machine doesn't support tethering, you can go buy a USB LTE dongle and set it up for like, $90.

Your CABLE provider may have a monopoly, assuming you have no reasonable access to dish (or aren't lucky enough to have fiber). But that monopoly is also sanctioned by your local municipality, whose permission that provider requires since they have to drill up public land to access and maintain their infrastructure, and if you throttle granny's access to Recipes.com and Pinterest she'll vote you out next referendum, and the cable companies know it.

Fun aside: the FCC's official position on net neutrality does not and has never applied to mobile carriers. Ask yourself if all of the doomsaying nickel-and-dime web-filtered shit has been true of your mobile browsing experience.

In this case they kept getting roadblocked by the ISP's where they were trying to set up; I don't blame them for just giving up entirely when you've been unable to set up your planned business for years.

Because monopolies. One company builds and therefore owns the infrastructure of an entire city for example, so they can do what the fuck they want. Typically this means no maintenance, customer service of three poos in India and ripoff rates for absolute shit tier speed and there's absolutely nothing you can do about it short of moving somewhere else. Pretty much thet only time they upgrade the lines is when local government contracts them to do it (and therefore they're legally obliged to do it). It's living hell and free market fundamentalism at it's very best.

America is fundamentally broken because decisions are made by people who are more invested in their own needs than the people they represent.

The Presidents are bought out by the banks, and Congress is bought out by lobbyists/legal and encouraged bribes from big businesses.

It leads to nothing but get rich now and damn the consequences. American democracy does not serve the people, and the people are powerless. Their vote does nothing.

have fun going to jail when someone sends you a picture of something illegal, since recieving the image puts it on your device, since you are in possession of it.

net neutrality is less of letting everyone do whatever they want, and more of not ending up with cameras in your homes watching your every moment just in case you decide to do something illegal.

Rail is shit in america because the government doesn't own the rails, the companies do. this doesn't mean other companies can't use their rails, they can, but the company that owns them gets priority so scheduling can be impossibly difficult. That along with pretty much no new rails ever being built due to just how expensive it is to build them, buy the land, permits, ect means America will probably never have a decent rail system. Even if they focused on it and dumped shittons of money getting it to a decent point would take decades.

The funniest one for me was browsing the weed subreddit when Trump appointed Sessions. They couldnt believe it, it like the piss was coming for their face in slow motion but they still were perplexed when it hit their face.

They hated Hillary because according to them she wasn't gonna do enough, then were amazed Trump went against weed.

The only way to take away druglords power is by making weed legal

>To use the analogy of a public water main, Spectrum promised customers gallons of water and then knowingly leased them a faucet that was only able to produce drops at a time.

>But Schneiderman goes further. He states that Spectrum also refused to upgrade the water main itself during a period of heavy demand. It did so in order to negotiate higher fees with the owners of the water source — in this case Netflix and Riot Games — as well as the owner of the larger water system, internet backbone provider Cogent.

>“[Spectrum] deliberately took advantage of its control over port capacity where its network connected to online content providers to extract more revenue for the company,” states Schneiderman’s complaint. “To do so, [Spectrum] used its leverage over access to subscribers to extract fees from online content providers in exchange for granting such access.”

>Once Netflix and Riot Games agreed to pay Spectrum for access to its customers, performance improved. Meanwhile, it took the FCC’s Open Internet Order to solve the issues between Spectrum and Cogent.

>“[Spectrum] lined its pockets by intentionally creating bottlenecks in its connections with online content providers, despite knowing that these negotiating tactics would create problems for its subscribers in accessing online content.”

>As proof of its fraudulent business practices, Schneiderman points to a specific program by the FCC to install monitoring hardware inside Spectrum customer’s homes. The devices used commonly available online services, like Speedtest.net, to keep tabs on the quality of consumer internet connections. When a portion of those tests reflected negatively on Spectrum, the OAG claims the company boosted only those customer’s connections in a direct attempt to fool the FCC.

If net neutrality is gone any ISP could block any service in its bandwidth. They could upsell special packages to charge you separately to access to different sitea. One for social media one for videogames, one for video, one for music. Republicans say idea is that instead there would be a free market with more options, this of course won't happen because it's not like Comcast is gonna roll over and let a smaller ISP come in and take their territory.

>>383055418
That doesn't work unless the right of ways are also opened up to other ISPs.
The right of ways need to be opened.
That's the problem, let anyone hook up to it relatively easily. That's literally all you have to do.

I've been saying this for years. Globalism is fucking up too much shit in too many places at the same time. Either the people responsible for this are retarded or want a worldwide conflict to ensue, because that's going to happen. When Americans have their internet censored there will be riots. When G*rmans are outnumbered by Muslims 2 to 1 there will be riots. Latin America has been in a perpetual state of revolution for the past 5 years, and Eastern Europe is such a clusterfuck that without western deterrence Russia will steamroll the Balkans.

We're in for a wild ride, no matter where you live. The only question is when.

>Retards falling for Google's trickery
Okay, first of all, this whole shit is not going to lead to your web history, address and shit like that being sold, that shit is already protected regardless if this whole thing passes or not.

Second of all, that thing you're so concerned about them "Removing"? It's not even in fucking effect you turboretards, companies already can sell INFORMATION.

The keyword here is INFORMATION, as in the same fucking information I deal on a daily basis with my job regarding Google Adwords and shit. Nothing personal will be seen because it's of no interest to anyone. The data that is sold is "X amount of people like/are interested in Y", that's pretty much it. No one wants or needs more information than that.

Third of all, you can opt out by just asking your ISP, they are obligated by law to let you opt out.

Fourth of all, why I said you're falling for Google's trickery. This whole thing essentially allows ISPs to do the exact same thing Google has been doing for years, except the statistics would be more accurate. As in ISPs, assuming they'd even dare despite the fear of blowback from consumers, being a potential actual threat to Google's services regarding ads and statistics. Of course Google wants to "Save" this, they are probably funding a lot of shit just to fuel up the resistance because it could be an end to what is essential a monopoly.

And you fucks are falling head over heels over it because you don't understand anything and fall for the "THEY SELL YOUR BROWSER HISTORY" meme.

But they wouldn't. Because it would be stupid to do so, business-wise. That's the whole point. We all know what's POSSIBLE but nobody has yet explained why they WOULD (except with Netflix, because the largest ISP in the US owns its direct competitor)

Well some people have, with varying degrees of seriousness, suggested that the internet was a mistake. Given everything that's happened in the past couple of years, I'm slowly starting to think there might be some truth there. As difficult as it is for me to admit, I have to say that it seems the vast majority of people, even relatively intelligent people, are much more vulnerable to confirmation bias than any of us could've anticipated. Which is to say, the early internet has shown us that, left purely to their own devices, people will inevitably create horrible echo chambers full of made up nonsense completely divorced from reality. At least in the muddied milieu of polite society, there was SOME kind of obligation for compromise and common ground, but on the internet you're completely free to spout your one-sided lunacy and people are completely free to believe you.

In other words, filtering or "censorship" is inevitable. Even your own sensory experiences are just a patchwork of loose impressions largely filled in by autonomic functions in your brain. Trying to pretend you can stop or escape it is no different than thinking you can successfully illegalize drug use.

America is the world leader is technology, whether you like it or not. With over 300 million people, if even 1% are intelligent enough to start fighting back, that's a solid 3 million Americans who know how to bypass filters and start making bombs in their garages from torrented anarchy cookbooks. There will be some seriously fucked up fallout if the American internet is censored.

We already have riots over the dumbest shit (Antifa because "nazis" hurt their feelings, BLM because a burgler got shot, etc), and all for the sake of being allowed to break things and steal store goods too.

Internet censorship definitely won't be taken well (unless weened into it, which is probably what'll happen) but I suspect dumber people to start the powder kegs first.

Censoring the internet will just make the people who use it to vent frustration stop using it, which will harbor dissent, which will eventually lead to action.
