Very close to liking, what happens if I upvote and downvote the same post?
Paradoxical time curve. The universe collapses on itself and resets. Probably not a good idea.

This dude is a winner.
And if it starts to strangle him it will be even more meta.

An in depth dissenting report on the vote by a democratic member of the FCC's commissioner.
Very long, but very much a well informed opinion and worth reading.

Ajit Pai cancels his appearance at CES days before the show because he'd likely (he would, we know this) answer questions about the FCC vote to repeal NN.

Consumer's aren't his constituents or responsibility. It's been made pretty clear. Why waste time talking to people you have no interest in?

Lol... if people actually voted in that type of way, our presidency would look different.

Not reading anything but the headline, all I could think was "duh".

That’s not remotely the end of the process: if it’s approved, the resolution will go to the House, and if it passes there,
the desk of Donald Trump, who seems unlikely to approve it. -

But it's being spin as against personal liberties so they'll be for it because there majority don't often do any research.

TLDR: ISPs will be bashing each other and using NN to justify charging you more for less...
Yesterday I called WOW cable to renegotiate my internet service as my contract promotional period had expired. Comcast was offering 100/15 for $44.99, I was currently paying $55 for 30/5. After getting past the initial sales person, I'm on with retention... I explain to them what Comcast was offering, so she repeats some garbage offer which still isn't even close to Comcast. So when I repeat that it's not even close, she brings up NN and reassures me how serious WOW is about an unregulated internet and how terrible Comcast will be, and that WOW's 60Mbps service would likely be better than Comcast's 100Mbps service because we all know they'll be throttling everything they can. I ended up with 100Mbps from them for $39.99/month.
