Comcast, Verizon and AT&T want to end net neutrality so they can charge extra fees to control what we see & do online

Vote if possible :wink: Althought im not in this boat as im not using any of these providers BUT , i think it’s important.
ALSO. If you have fb pages or something , you could share this , it might even get you some exposure as some of your page fans might wanna share this :wink: Have a i great day.
p.p.s i know it looks bit sketchy , i didin’t do any further research so hope this is not some shitty email collector.

How is that any different from What Google has done? (showing ads web page first)

I would highly suggest you read up on net neutrality before making these statements.

It is like we are talking about the weather and you are saying it is 7:43 PM.

i’ve been in this game , i would never post my own shit here. I do not have any rights for this though it does look bit sketchy but what doesn’t when we are used to create our own boss lp’s ? as @MojoJojo said do your research if you don’t believe in this , im just standing up for free network. Who knows , they might even start controlling free marketing. Goverments took a lot of our freedom , fuck them :wink:

I have Comcast as an internet provider. I pay a good sum per month and received an email stating that they increased our speeds, funny thing is, now streaming stutters all the time, I can barely stream music, and downloads take forever! Net Neutrality is no joke in the U.S. or Canada, Telus and other major providers will follow suit in other countries!

Okay, I have read it. And so how much market share do Comcast, Verizon and AT&T control in US?(since I have no idea). If they are too big, then they are going against monopoly law

I believe you I just think the person behind the lp is collecting a good amount of leads from this. I have been hearing about this stuff for 10 years now. Honestly its some north korean stuff if they did this & im sure the people who run america wouldn’t allow this to happen (not sure about other countries)

Have you seen who is running our country?? They will absolutely allow this to happen. And you can check reddit for other sites, sure they collect e-mails, who doesn’t?

The point is there are lots of sites and ways to petition for net neutrality.

it might be , as i said i also kind of in neutral position , i know that “Net Neutrality” is a real thing , not so sure about the website. It states that they only want to control the fees and all that BUT , i’m afraid that if they’re not going to take a hit from the users other network providers might also be inspired to follow up. I know i might sound like a paranoid idiot but just think about it. Goverments can silence the mainstream media , TV but they can’t do shit about people on social networks sharing their thoughts , it’s a huge thing and simple people have big impact on keeping society conscious and that is not something any goverment would want. Just take an example how Hilary Clinton played the "take a selfie with a dumb celebrity , invite a dumb celebrity to her “show” .

LOL, sorry, didn’t mean t get so passionate about it. But it has the potential to affect every country. I trust Comcast as far as I can throw them. I wish we had Google Fiber here.

Just about every government filters the internet and social media, the U.S. is not alone in what it does. Every country does it differently.

#16

im not excluding us just took it as an example. Let’s end it here , my point is that we should all participate in doing our best to keep internet intact :slight_smile:

But goverment have already filtered internet content. For example, in my country, Indonesia, porn is blocked. In USA, child porn and drug is blocked

And there are about 78598 sites you can find with a simple Google search that allow you to bypass any restriction.
