Now It's "Free Stuff" That's Going to "Kill The Internet"

Having been whipped into a frenzy by interest groups funded by the largest internet companies in existence, most notably Boogle, clueless "internet citizens" have been campaigning for "internet neutrality" for quite some time now.

The campaigning is accompanied by idiotic claims such as small businesses will no longer be able to usurp Boogle or Facecrack despite the fact that the campaigning is led by these companies through a myriad of front groups suggesting the opposite is true.

Anyhow the latest bleats out of this side of the internet nutters is that telco's offering zero rating services (doesn't count towards data allocation) is a violation of net neutrality and goddamit. Apparently you should just pay more for internet to keep the idiotic notion of "treating packets fairly" alive.

    Does this attitude and choice of language make you feel like a big person?

  • Can't understand what you've written, but it comes across to me that you don't support Net Neutrality.

    Is it only cause you like your Freezone content?
    TPG are killing freezone anyway, so no great loss.
    If not for that reason alone or at all, why do you think it's fair that Internet companies can charge their consumers and service providers for access to content and then charge more to transmit content that is popular?

    Do you think that we should introduce pay-for fast lanes on all our roads and have the rate to access those lanes variable according to who you are and how popular your vehicle's brand is?

    TL;DR - one IP is offering free Netflix that doesn't count towards data usage. Is this unfair for other IPs?

    It's called market capitalism.

    I don't understand your assembly of words.
