    2. @diciestryan No seriously that guy talks, looks, and acts like a total dipcherries. I don't know what "net neutrality" is, but if it takes that guy off the web then good riddance.

      1. @mrmattimation Net Neutrality means ISP's don't get to play favourites. In its absence, ISP's are free to extort money from site owners, on the premise of "If you don't pay up, your site is going to load /awfully slowly/" The main orgs it's going to hit are VoD services like Netflix. It will almost certainly be actively degraded in order to push their own services.

        1. @ceruleanspark So what you're saying is, it doesn't effect anybody at all because everybody's going to disregard it? Good thing too, I was about to go make anti-Obama comments on torrent forums!

          2. @mrmattimation It will effect evrypony the same way that PRISM and ECHELON effects evrypony. More in the creeping sense of dread and a general chilling effect. The backlash was bigger a few years back, but as with everything Softly softly entraps the populace,

          3. @mrmattimation "Everybody is going to just disregard it". /I/ won't be able to pay what Verizon and Comcast would want, so I hope you like accessing RDN over 56k.

              2. @mrmattimation @mrmattimation in essence Net neutrality is an extension to the SuperPac ruling where Free Speech will == $$$.
