>It's hurting the market and doesn't give customers choice over which product get.

People in many areas only have one ISP to choose from. In those areas, prices are high due to lack of competition where the ISP has free reign to do whatever they want and the customer has no choice but to comply silently.
>>
>>53277518
Nothing.
Everything's wrong with the opposite actually.

ISPs can blackmail companies into paying to have a better treatment and not get slowed down.
ISPs can decide what news/informations to deliver to their customers by slowing down the connection to some resources while maintaining unthrottled connections to others.

ISPs have no interest in filesharing. It benefits them, in fact.

This will probably never happen under an authoritarian regime such as the Republicans or Democrats.

What NN is about is access to these sites being equal.

>What is wrong with ISPs not being able to give one website preferential treatment over the other?
The problem is that who ever has deeper pockets can make sure their competitor never gets off the ground.
Imagine if wallyworld paid ISPs (or struck some deal) to make sure its streaming service was flawless and netflix because it lacks the resources can't pay for that.

A more likely outcome would be something with wireless data caps, what if FB partners up with carriers and says access to its site will be free for all users, everything else people need to pay money for out of their own pockets. How is a competitor supposed to compete against that ? you could easily crush any fledgling company like that.
>>
>>53277737
I'm all for giving people the choice. That's why I am in favour net neutrality.

With no neutrality what makes you think that people would have the choice?
ISP would have the choice, not the customers, as it always is.
They could speed the connections to the service that pay their blackmail, while crushing the speed to sites that can't afford it like 4chan.
Or even sites that the ISP arbitrarily decides is not worth.

Neutrality ensures that you have the same possibilty of watching shota hentai or a political debate. Thus, more choice.

Net Neutrality essentially says that a the internet is a utility and allows the government to impose regulations on it. So choice is an illusion, either the companies get to decide, or the government gets to decide. At least with a company you can vote with your wallet, when the government is in charge you have no say.

anyways we are talking about equal access to sites not which sites are illegal/bad/whatever.

NN is not about making sure sites stay online or taking down the bad ones, its simply to make sure that no site/business has preferential treatment over another one.
Let consumers pick the winners, not companies with deep wallets.

Also where the hell did you get the idea that NN means that the state is an ISP payed with taxes?
NN is a law that impose that current ISP have to grant the same speed to all sites without putting up roadblocks on the roads to certain locations.
NN is for letting the internet continue to function as it is now.

Maybe I'm starting to understand why morons are so afraid of NN, because they have no idea of what it is and base their opinions on uninformed biased crap spouted by some politician paid from lobbies.

Personally, I'm not even OK with that because my local government are absolute crooks and fuck up anything and everything. How the fuck do you even fuck up basic energy? Well my local government has.

What we currently have is unsatisfactory as well, a handful of companies that control internet access and pricing, with huge barriers of entry. Overall, I suppose if push comes to shove, I'm OK with local governments controlling the wires, with a basic internet service (ie no unlimited data or insane speeds, but is a given), and easy entry for businesses to gain access to the wires and resell them - whether that's Mom&Pop shops or Google.

In America, we have public roads and toll roads. We have Social Security and Retirement funds. We have public school and private school.

Government ISPs should be set up as non profits, providing an affordable baseline standard with NN, no data caps, etc. Private companies would be allowed to eschew these principles, with the challenge of creating a service more alluring. This way, you can try your retard Non Neutral policy without causing any actual harm.

>>53278279
Yeah actually. They're complacent in letting ISPs price fix.

>>53278279
Internet infrastructure is to some extent a natural monopoly because the barrier to entry is so high. So you end up with companies carving out regional monopolies because of lack of interest in moving into markets that already have competition.

The ISPs lobbied hard to get their monopoly set up.
The reason the government can't be trusted is because corporations have bought the government, however, this doesn't mean that no government is the answer.

You forget that before the government offered those services, most people couldn't afford to travel, couldn't get an education beyond simple arithmetic, and moved in with their children in their old age (not that that is really a bad thing).

Well in the case of natural monopolies the government usually has some sort of pricing controls put in place, but I don't know if thats a realistic solution in this case. In some instances local governments are lobbied by ISPs to stop competition.

One specific instance of this brings me back to UTOPIA which our local ISP lobbied against, saying they would roll out better internet service if the city didn't join the project, so we ended up with the most populated city in the metropolitan area being excluded from fiber rollout. In hindsight with the management issues they've had it may have been a blessing in disguise, but at the time it reeked of corruption.

Our local isp, the only one in the area besides satellite, has been rolling out fiber optic. Regular cable net with 15d1u is $50 no caps.

It depends on the industry, frankly.

Health Care being a topic of major debate, I personally believe it's better for THE CITIZENRY that it's not run as a completely for-profit enterprise, like virtually every first world country does it, using the single-payer system. In Canada doctors and medical companies still make money, and the people are afforded a good standard of health care for a relatively inexpensive cost.

Mostly Libertarians are retards who believe that they can just 'vote with their dollar' against any big company that starts doing things they don't like, in the post-government-regulars world.

It's amusing that while Americans keep toting they are free and they live in a free country, absolutely everything has ridiculous conditions and people are so used to being fucked in the ass by companies and corporations that they will actually support braindead ideas like breaking net neutrality.

>But mah netflix could be faster!

Why can't you just hope for ALL of your internet to be fast? Sure I get it, if you live in the sticks, you might not have a fast landline, but can't you opt for a fast LTE connection? That's what they successfully use in remote locations in desolate Northern Europe. Download speeds up to 100 Mb/s, latency below 50ms.

>But that's expensive

So would be your non-neutral internet. First they might offer you like $10 below what you pay now, but later on they will make "improvements to the infrastructure" or some bullshit like that, all of the sudden the price hikes up by $30 but you're still stuck with a prioritized internet connection. ISPs aren't looking for your best interest, they will attempt to gouge you every chance they get. If you let them have their way, you will end up with some overly stupified service-only internet, you get an ISP approved browser with a few buttons like netflix and whatever the fuck normies pay for. Facebook gold. That will probably be a thing once all the normies get shilled by American ISPs.

There is absolutely no chance a prioritized internet would work how all the idealists think it would. It would just mean more advertisements, and with IPv6 coming, everyone will have a non-recycled IP-address. That means if you use something to bypass or block ads, your ISP will get notified and they will charge you $100 for breaking conditions, which, by no doubt will be set like that.

I enjoy my European internet more. I can torrent without really worrying about getting consequences, my privacy is respected and I don't even pay too much for it.

you get fine like 2.5% of your income or some shit this year

$3000 a year is cheaper than $9000 a year (which yes you will be required to pay, it doesnt just come out of your taxes and they ignore the rest)

the nearest doctor that would see me with the plan i had was about 200 miles away i shit you fucking not

It's not about "all websites are equal"

It's about how ACCESS to all websites should be treated equally.


Not to mention that I, as a customer, am already paying for the internet. And having all of my favorite websites get throttled and slowed down because they didn't or couldn't pay the premium bandwidth fees is unfair to ME. THE CUSTOMER who's paid for a fiber optic connection, and expects a speedy internet experience.

(fuck, trying to type with a bandaid on one of your fingers is a pain in the ass).

Let's be real here - if that happened what of real value would be lost?

Anything of value is stored at universities and they have their own networks

>and are OK paying $80 for it

>>53279328
I feel bad that you make more money than me while thinking $9000 is 2.5% of 35k

some ISP already have monopolies and abuse them, why would Americans willingly give them more power over your connection

you'd have to be a cuck of cosmic magnitudes

I know it's bait, but it's good bait.

The government is expected to try and turn internet to TV. Few easily controlled channels of information.
You have absolutely no motivation to go along.
You only have to lose.

You can't compel a private citizen to perform labor for you. We wrote laws against that more than a century ago.

If we want to make doctors into government employees, that's a whole other can of worms that will require reforming the way universities work, as medical school would need to be paid for through tax revenues or we would never have enough doctors if all they get is government paygrades.

>>53279506
I don't think anyone is proposing making doctors government employees.

There has been no Supreme Court decision on "Natural Born Citizen". If he is elected, someone could try to sue him out of office.

It doesn't have to be. If we just eradicate the colored and give unions teeth again.

Cruz already beat you to it. Last night he gave a butthurt speech about how he was going to keep on fighting no matter what, because Trump is exactly like Obama--hates Jesus, hates the second amendment, hates the constitution, loves Obamacare, loves illegal immigrants, wants to force you to be gay...It's just fucking horrible, but luckily he's going to continue being a lolcow and fighting the good fight, like the delusional faggot he is.

Trump may make a shitty president, but the man is a fucking hero. He's the reason Ted Cruz, and Jeb Bush will never be president. He's very likely the reason Hillary won't ever be either. This country should be thanking him for this. I don't care what your politics are, he's already done you a tremendous service.

I'd like to point out that, if 3 is accurate, then Obama's presidency would remain legitimate if he had been born in Kenya.

Funny how so much of the country changed their opinion of what a "natural born US citizen" means.

>Scalia was someone who believed "natural born citizen" meant being born in the US.
