Sooo... has net neutrality repeal taken effect yet? Poor souls, you. Though, you have that low tax salary money. Use it to buy the best internets. From what I understand it still has to go to court. There is also a lot of misinformation about it. Even the term "net neutrality" is in and of itself a kind of misnomer in regards to what happened. Kind of like how the "Patriot Act" sounded like some sort of selfless God bless America thing, but in reality it convinced everyone to let the govt take their privacy away post 9/11. Anyway...
All the FCC did was repeal the title 2 classification. People are buying into fear mongering stating things that ISPs can already do, and things that are illegal for them to do regardless of the title 2 status. But Mark Hamill is smarmy on Twitter, so that trumps all facts I guess...
Memes aside, I'd be surprised if this decision effects anyone's day to day.

Alright, that sounds good. People on the internet are making Ajit Pai to be the incarnation of Satan himself. It's a fuss over nothing, huh?

getting rid of net neutrality could mean more expensive internet... and yes.. even internet packages just like they do with tv packages.. getting rid of net neutrality can allow them to do stuff like that since now they can block any website they want

That's illegal. The title 2 classification everyone is lumping the entire concept of a neutral internet into wasn't preventing that.

Lol none of my friends have a DS anymore! Ah. Well I generally traded anything from there onto the newer games to trade on the GTS (via wifi). That's what I meant by that. That makes sense.

Setz is correct.
"oh Net Neutrality is saving us from the big bad ISPs!!!!" No it wasn't!! Everyone wants to use Netflix and Comcast as an example. So let's continue that. Yes Comcast throttled Netflix, Yes they signed a deal and then Netflix called Comcast out! And I am 100% sure Comcast took a pretty big hit when that happened and I don't blame Netflix 1 bit! That being said.
Did you know you were most likely still being "throttled"? Did you think ISPs stopped throttling because of Net Neutrality? Well guess what, you were still being throttled!! This time we will use Time Warner (now Spectrum) as an example.
TWC has multiple areas where they provide service to millions of people, WI, OH, FLA for starters. In order for all of those customers to have access to Amazon for example they need to get outside of the TWC network and to do that you have to go through what is called an interconnect. TWC contracts with Level3 to access the backbones and then on to Amazon. In a "business decision" TWC only purchases access to 6 interconnects with a limit to bandwidth at each interconnect. So while TWC isn't "throttling" you for using Netflix or accessing Amazon they are bottlenecking access to the backbones! So please explain how Net Neutrality helped you? Because legally, they did NOTHING wrong but yet if there was a load on their network you would see issues or "unintentional throttling".
The other argument is "the ISPs can control what you see or sites you go to and push their agenda". Ok, so why doesn't anyone have an issue with the content providers doing this? Youtube, Facebook, Google and many others have been PROVEN to do this!!! So why is it ok for them to do it and not the ISPs? I am not saying this will happen but why the hypocrisy?
Do we want the shit that ISPs do to stop? YES but let capitalism work and that will happen. IF I find Spectrum is throttling me, I should have the option to go to another ISP. Stop municipalities such as your city/township from blocking competition!! My area is blocking Verizon, Google and other options to come in and supply Internet access, why? Who is getting money in their pocket for blocking them? THIS is what needs to stop, THIS is what we need to question and fight against!! IF Spectrum loses customers to their competition because of their practices what do you think will happen?
Outside of gaming VPNs are the answer too. It might be a good idea to see if that is a viable business. A good VPN will hide what sites and content you download from outside your ISP network. Gamers are screwed because that will add latency. But again, give us choices and competition between ISPs is a good thing for us, the consumer!
