I think the OP has a point. I've had issues lately with websites losing slow and my emails habe been failing to connect too server. Both hotmail and windstream. My connection speed always reads the fastest available to me. So I don't believe it's a placebo effect. It's the ISPs already fucking with us.

Well I wasn't actually saying it's because of NN being repealed, just that everyone was telling him that he was crazy... when there IS something going on.

 

And which ISP do you work for?

Any business practice that puts the customer last is shady in my book. Customer first remember? Is the moral and ethical thing to do. But I'm not a greedy bastard, so I don't think makind money at the cost of others happiness is the right thing to do.

It's just odd to me cuz my internet started acting up on dec 14.

Well said. Some people are just so brainwashed that they eat up the business ideology. They can't tell the difference between what's real and what's just an idea. A corporation by law only has 1 duty; to make money for it's shareholders. Even if it hurts people, destroys the environment etc...
However there's an objective moral law they refuse to acknowledge and they're in for a rude awakening when they transition.

 

Shady is hiking prices and restricting websites and material that's not contributing to their pockets without justifiable reasons other than their own greed. I guess you enjoy paying for only part of your original agreement. And then paying more for less. Sorry I'm not agreeable on that. It's like paying a contractor to build a house then them saying they can't put the roof on it and you need to pay them more to complete what they will actually do. That's SHADY!

It better not be someone messing with the internet to try to send a message.
"See this is what getting rid of Net Neutrality will look like, lets not get rid of it."

At the same time it looks like the FCC or ISP's or someone were using dead peoples names to support the repeal.
So that side is guilty too of messing with this whole repeal.

 

My internet has been working just fine as far as I can tell. I'm still pretty nervous about the possible effects of losing net neutrality. It's ironic that the FCC asked for public opinions while completely ignoring them. I really hope the senate pulls through for the country and restores net neutrality.

 

Net neutrality is a distraction, you should be more worried about why you don't have competition.
