Future of the Internet and "Net Neutrality"

[Farbin Kaiber]

If Obama or whomever tries to regulate the ISPs, it will run them out of business.

And dont ANYONE here say that you support government issued internet access.

i.e. China

wrong.

Obama NEEDS to say that he is pro-neutrality, because he has to say what people want to hear. In real life, he can't do a damn thing about it.

In real life, the businesses will still do whatever they want. It really doesnt matter, as long as there is free market. If comcast wants to charge $X to allow you to browse outside of their "core" sites... How many of your friends will remain comcast customers?

Yeah, but you forget the monopoly that ISPS have. How many cable companies do you have in your area? We get 1, either take it or leave it. If you take it, then you can get rammed in the ass with whatever they want.

It could become completely political like oil, all the ISPs could forum a "union" like gas stations, just another reason you don't see 50 cent cheaper gas at one station vs. another.
