And here's the funny thing about that ridicule. You'll notice there are plenty of posters here who disagree with me, even on first principles, but we engage in mutually respectful and intelligent discussions.
Kinda makes you think, eh?
Or more likely it doesn't.

Likewise, Comcast can't throttle packets from Netflix while allowing Youtube to go thru unscathed. This is especially important where you have monopolies or duopolies for service providers, which is true almost everywhere in this country
And to cut off your likely retort, net neutrality says nothing about metering for actual use or similar means of charging high use customers more.Last edited by unofan; 11-16-2016, 09:29 AM.

If no one is in charge, would that mean each nation maintains its own internal internet separately? If so, how does each nation's internet connect to every other nation's internet?"Hope is a good thing; maybe the best of things."
