Well I'm sure I know more than everyone on the Huffpo.....dear god I'm sure I'd not use that as my source on anything related to science and tech.The thing is what they are arguing for and what this ruling is about and does are two different things. You want an unregulated internet where you can go where you want and not have walls tossed up and limits. What the FCC is trying to do isn't about that. They have framed it that way but it is about their ability to regulate traffic and they have specifically determined how internet network management can work. Again, imagine if the FCC had tried to determine how cell phone data plans should have worked in 1995. Happy thoughts no doubt.Again, as we sit and type right now YouTube gets "preferential" treatment on most ISP's because they will cache and replicate it because it is a high volume site. That is not neutral but it helps your experience. I agree with you about the theory of net neutraility but the problem is the FCC rules don't advance that cause except in a very narrow and short-term focused fashion and tie up internet governance with a ton of government rules and regulations moving forward.

I gave plenty of big sources outside of them, but you choose to ignore it. Exactly, it's ONLY good for the big companies that have the money. You're on PewterReport do you think they have the kind of money to make sure you have the best experience possible? No, sites like this will suffer. If you're an up and coming website you'll be screwed thanks to the death of the internet being neutral. What you're not seeing is because ISP's can manipulate what speeds websites get they can essentially block websites they don't want you too see. They can now intentionally throttle your speeds based on what websites you use. You brought up the fact you watch Netflix nightly. Guess what? Verizon is powering The Red Box online. You know what that means? That can throttle your Netflix speed so much that your best option is to use their service which is Red Box Online. Right now they can't do that because it's not allowed because of net neutrality. Without it they can now play favorites. You're being selfish. Because you'll say then switch providers. Guess what? There are a lot of places that believe or not only have ONE choice. They will have no choice, but to pay the extra cost if they really want it. You bring up your dad checking E-mail and ESPN UHH DUH it's called choosing a smaller internet package. I pay for 50/25 and I want that for ALL sites that I visit. Not what Fios chooses to favor. Support something that not many people outside the government will support. But you won't find many like yourself.
