time to buy plenty of bluetooth and wifi stuff to make your own net\peer to peer\grid connection.
i mean, with so many devices close to each other people could make a peer to peer network, just had to develop software like the moderns IM apps\programs that wait until there is a connection to deliver the message

Be sure to download your entire Steam library too, while you're at it.

dont forget to get cracks anyway, steam offline mode can't be trusted, most time it work, but if something minimal happens you require to get online

I've had that before, but I found if you backup certain critical steam folder and then restore them after it begs for internet it works again :D
Not recommended but I had no internet for like a month so I did drastic things to keep steam games

you just require the cracks, dont need to download the entire releases most of the times
anyway, i suggest the fit girl repacks, they are usually highly compressed saving a ton of storage, just take a bunch more time to install but it's worth it

tbh I just took a backup of the entire steam folder except the steamapps folder, then copied it back into place everytime it demanded internet acess

Also, while you're at it, be sure to download whatever you feel you'll want to emulate while you can. Who knows what the ISPs will do to those.

or you know guys, start a riot, grab a gun and go shoot thoose assholes.. i dunno but just dont give up, tell all your friends about net neutrality etc..

Shooting people is hardly a way to garner people around your cause. That being said, people from all over the country have been trying to fight back against net neutrality, with mixed results.

Highly wishful thinking. We have an amendment literally made for backing up a well armed militia to overthrow these kinds of jerks but it's extremely difficult to band together people with the similar mindset of forced violence with the same endgoal, especially when the opposing force has monstrous defenses and can manipulate the media into telling viewers that said small militia is a (1/3)

terrorist organization or some shit when all they are doing is using their rights to back up more rights like a freedom fighter would do. Many people see the hopelessness that is actually fighting back and just choose not to, because hey, if you have a job and a family to feed, it's not worth risking all that for a bullet through the brain. "Threat neutralized". (2/3)
