this will kill large protests and filter much needed info to the poor.

Elaborate on that one bruh

Remember this year's woman's marches? How did those get organized again?

Remember how poorer American people started to eat healthier on average thanks to info they got exposing the truth on fast food and other junk food? How did they receive that information again?

Hurts entrepreneurs/small business alot....

All the free advertising and open communication with consumers.

Being able to use shipping/trading sites like amazon and ebay for free.

Damn.

The FCC can stop bandwidth or bottleneck. That means if they choose to, they can even block certain youtube videos. So Professor Black Truth, The Black Authority, and Tariq Nasheed can be censored.

So basically with this repeal internet providers will now be allowed to BLOCK or SLOW DOWN service for specific apps or websites, and CHARGE users MORE MONEY for using streaming services like Netflix,Youtube,HULU etc

The people who will be hit hardest by this,of course are poor and low income communities( i.g. black communities)

Which is why President Obama, "" who never did ANYTHING for black people!"" was against repealing NN and fought to keep the internet as is..where regardless of your financial status you still have the same web speed and web browsing service as everyone else

Remind me again who put him there in the first place.

This affects online gaming as well,right?

Yep, they can slow the bandwidth down and make you pay more.

Porn lovers are really going to get hit.

Comcast had a deal with Xbox so yeah they could slow down the online gaming for PS4 servers if they wanted to

That would be counter productive. Microsoft cant pay them enough to cover the cost of people leaving Comcast because they refuse to get Xbox’s due to Comcast throttling speeds for PS.

They would have to pay Comcast enough to cover the cost of doing so. And enough to cover the cost of value lost due to a weaker standing in the stock market due to people leaving, and threatening to leave Comcast. That’s way to much of an investment than they would be willing to make.

In addition to that it would be a PR shit storm.

Look people, cable companies do not have to capcity to provide the bandwidth for which it sells. It is very very expensive to have everyone allocated speeds up to and above 500mbps. It’s very very costly

But they aren’t going to tell u that because what u say u can’t do. It won’t stop the next company from lying to u and saying they can.

So these companies seem to be in truce mode. Because the only way they can cost effectively provide everyone with the bandwidth they need to provide reasonable ping time is to have control in directing traffic.

They can’t just give u have a gig step back and say have at it. Even tho it’s what they sell you. They can’t...you been lied to and before it all implodes. Shit like this happens. It’s not as much as an attack on consumer as it is an admission of guilt in lying to consumers.

That attack already came, people were just made to believe the attack was a benefit. When the benefit didn’t truly exist

They claim they're doing this to increase competitiveness but I've literally watch AT&T and Comcast swallow up nearly all the smaller isp's in my area..

I hope this comes back to bite them in the ass..
 
That shit is artificial growth, it’s called edge out. It’s meant to trick Wall Street to believe inflated numbers about subs to convince them the company is growing. Thus keeping their price high and allowing them to gain money to pay off debts and repeat the same process.
