It's not a bill, it's a commission rule. Totally different.

They're doing this because they want to.

Those bastards. They're trying to get away with more highway robbery.

It's the old 'if we can't get what we want, we'll do so another way'.

Uh no.

Heads up. Bills are about to go up.

The FCC has removed any safeguards for Net Neutrality.

We're not licked yet. I have faith in certain Attorney Generals who will not let Net Neutrality go down without a fight. To quote Poe Damaran, "As long as there's light, we still have a chance."

No more Net Neutrality is bad. There are no two ways about it. Basically without it, these companies will be able to do what they please, when they please, and the customer will end up paying more in the long run. They'll be able to get away with anything they wish, and they almost did before Net Neutrality came along. It's basically a way for them to make more money, customer be damned. The scary thing is, everything's about the clouds now, and you can be sure that they suddenly became more expensive to access.

Well I guess the decision can always be reversed at some point in the future. You just have to elect representives that work more for you than their paymasters.

Which means, basically none of them and even if you could get a few in that wants to help the people they will be in the minority. America is so screwed in many ways it's sad.
