Net Neutrality = Checkmate
What it all comes down to is how well you detect greed.
One company owns like 30% of internet connection in the united states. That company is Comcast. The rest of the connections are through the hundreds of dsl and the hundred or so other cable companies. This means that Comcast has the largest percentage, and the loudest voice. What they will do, all the others will soon follow suite. The companies that do not, will be bought quickly.
Comcast is wanting “unlimited” to end. They have been hyping some story of growing usage and lack of pipe to supply it all. Um, they did buy up all the other companies, of course the user count is growing. dur.. but so is their supply and resources. So do not be fooled by this.
Anyway we will be offered packages, instead of the packages we get now where we can select how fast our connection is, by how much we pay. We will now select how much we want to download in a month, by how much we are willing to pay. They push some theory that the internet will suddenly speed up because people will conserve better to avoid the prices. I see a huge spike at the beginning of the month of people saying ” oh hey I can down X amount now and just surf regular for the rest of the month”. Of course we will not see the internet get slow during these times because well, they have the horse power to support that, again they are blowing smoke to sell their product.
You may be wondering how they can get fake news out. right?…… cable tv, …. you get it yet ? Well in short, I am pretty sure they know someone who knows someone.
If they are allowed to charge site owners for the traffic that comes there from them, then they are now making from the people getting there, and the people that are there. That’s like ford charging Disney land for the people using Ford to get there. THE CAR IS FRICKEN PAID FOR!. This of course will lead to alot of websites shutting down because they can no longer afford to be on the internet. So lil Davey’s website about his favorite bicycle will have to go down because he can no longer afford to pay for the traffic that the internet sends to him. There is a chance that internet providers will blacklist websites and block people from trafficking the websites. If you notice, we are now being covered by comcast ,(if we are getting our service through comcast) if we type a domain name wrong, it takes us to a comcast specific page instead of the 404 page. This is a clear sign that those days are coming. This means an almost extortion mentality could come of this (old gangster’s voice) ” look see, this what we want for sending people to your website see, or we stop people all together see” When actually in all truth, if all the websites vanish from the internet, what the heck do we need internet for ? Looks like the whole internet freedom, is screeching to a hault in this case.
So if it is ruled against the carriers from charging the site owners, count on your internet being priced to come out of your pocket in a $50 a month for a limited amount of file size per month. chances are, they will do that anyway. charge the domain owners, and the customers.
Comcast is already testing this in a few cities across the united states.
