      The last few lines of this article sum up what is going to happen perfectly.

      https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2017/12/voluntary-net-neutrality-will-protect-consumers-after-repeal-fcc-claims/

      Which is "Public Knowledge VP Chris Lewis said. “This gives free rein to broadband providers to block or throttle your broadband service as long as they inform you of it.”"

        The FCC still doesn't know what the internet is, and fundamentally has no hope of understanding it before Thursday's vote.

            What? Blanket statement of "facts" without sources is completely normal, right. You don't need to see the sources of this information, right

              So, does Pai think Net Neutrality is something that it isn't? Other then corruption that's the only thing I can think of... no one can be this malevolent on purpose.

                yeah - heard about small ISP's whining (there was one on Security Now a few years ago) about how net neutrality was hurting him. /sigh. He was over subscribed for what he was selling. It's not 1998 anymore, people want to use the bandwidth they buy.

                  @coliver it's pretty easy to act malevolently when you are offered what you desperately want.

                  Be it a ton of money, a non-government job or whatever else.

                    Of course, why would you need facts and references? It's not like half of what I write ends up being references: https://www.travisdh1.net/lenovo

                          I honestly think he's simply sold out. He just doesn't care what ComCast or whomever else asks for so long as they pay him.

                            Quite frankly, i dont think a single person in Congress or working for the Executive Branch--at any level--knows what the internet is or how it works. They are all lawyers and real estate people or financial advisers, literally know-nothing jobs for know-nothing people.

                              You're kidding, right? Some of us have to work extra hard not to turn dark side.
