Is there an opposite one to sign that promotes free market, innovation and development?

Imagine being this much of a moronic partisan shill

If you wanna keep net neutrality you maybe should've voted for a President who would support it.

That's literally the only reason anyone would ever support that, or if they were the head of an ISP, or some other rich person. Or maybe you're just not very smart

So which is it?

What about the US internet service industry makes you think it's a free market without net neutrality?

If democrats showed up to vote at all outside of California it would have been an easy win for your Clinton overlord. Who may or may not have supported it.

This isn't a time for political bickering though, what's done is done. Now is the time to rise up as Americans, not republicans or democrats, to fight this shit.

That's the perfect time for political bickering.

All that will happen is asshole politicians laughing at everyone on the list. Maybe they will print it out and wipe their asses with it too.

Sorry to say that, but let's be real here.

"It's not my fault for voting for Trump guyz"

It absolutely is

Why is the trump gargler solution to uncomfortable political shit to complain about how "politics is everywhere" or "we shouldn't argue about politics right now"

Yes. That's also here.

If you're looking for the petition to restrict the first amendment and cement telecommunications monopolies, however, I don't know where to find it.

I'm curious. Is this really something you can lay at Trump's feet? Wouldn't a Republican congress try to push this through anyway?

I'm not singing that.

Free market over government and FCC.

Why on earth would you want the FCC involved in your internet?

I mean he's appointed the guy to the head of the FCC and allowed him to stay on afterwards after he made his policy goals clear

So yes this is directly Trump's fault

Fuck that. If Democrats "need to be reminded constantly how much Hillary sucks so they don't run her again", then Trump voters need to eat the shit they voted for. And when prices rise and people are inevitably fucked over from this, I'm going to continuously remind them they are to blame

1) The US internet service industry is not a free market
2) The FCC is already involved with the internet whether we have net neutrality or not.

When FCC instituted Title II that means that 100% of Title II is on the table. It also means anything they eventually decide is "needed" to regulate further will be done. The people in the FCC doing the regulating are not elected, they are not a Governing body the size of the House and Senate, three guys can make up a regulatory rule and get it implemented. Secondly, what gives anyone the right to decide how a private company manages their networks? People who support this need to look back at history rather than listen to what everyone tells them. The FCC is about blocking speech, and eventually they will.

A breast pops out for 1/2 a second at a Super Bowl, it becomes a sensational story, the FCC gets involved. CBS is fined more than half a million dollars by the FCC. It cost more to fight the battle all the way to the Supreme Court than the fine.

Howard Stern uses language OTA that is in daily general usage. It costs his terrestrial Broadcasters millions in court fees, fines and over 30 years costs Stern markets which he dominated and jobs. Not because 100,000's of thousands of people hated it, because they didn't, otherwise he would not have been the most popular broadcaster on terrestrial radio of all time, but because he violated FCC rules.

Fox, NBC, CBS, all of them, one host, broadcaster, anyone says a "bad" word and they spend three days apologizing for it over the air, because they know they are facing massive fines.

I'm trying to figure out how any of this is related to net neutrality.

that doesn't really work here. all they're asking is that you acknowledge that you fucked up and picked the wrong people instead of trying to act like the bigger person because now something YOU like is being affected..

i agree with both sides...come together and try to prevent this, but that doesn't give you a pass for working so hard to get the people who we all knew would do exactly this elected.

I don't know why you assume just because someone votes for a candidate means they agree with 100% of what that candidate does or stands for. I will always stand by that Trump was and is a better decision than Clinton, doesn't mean I agree with everything he says or does.

Right, you don't have to agree with everything. However every post i see you make is a partisan joke post constantly saying shit like "take that Liberals!" or whatever...And now that something serious that affects you is happening you want to take the high horse and try to shame everyone else to come together? Isn't this how you wanted things to be? or was all that just you trolling and NOW you're being serious?

Yep, and they make a ton of decisions on how private companies manage their networks. These private companies want their networks to work with the rest of the world, so they follow the standardizations set by those organizations.

I dunno about the other two, but IEEE is quite a bit more than just that.

The fact that you have yet to justify your giant block of nothing leads me to believe you don't know what you're talking about.

Why can't you just explain it?
