I listened to the entire No Agenda show, and just as I suspected they never even discussed what the debate is actually about. Their conclusion is that bandwidth costs money, and somebody has to pay for it. Yeah, no shite guys. They even suggest metered billing as some sort of solution, which is fine, but has absolutely no bearing on the topic of net neutrality.
Considering it was a 45 minute podcast about "net neutrality", there was a complete lack of discussion about the topic. If I recall correctly, they never once discussed the consequences of allowing ISPs to discriminate against packets based on their origin or destination.
The No Agenda guys should bite the bullet and create an agenda, and the first item on it should be to educate themselves on a topic before attempting to discuss it.

Why are you the only one who sees the danger to our freedom and economy with this shite?
Say I want to open a home improvement store, small business in my hometown to compete with Lowe's or Home Depot. Wouldn't one of them just pay extra to have their website be great, while mine loads 1995 AOL style? Small business won't compete without internet these days. That's a fact.

Why should I subsidize you constantly streaming Netflix espn etc? That's what the cordcutters want...nothing but a bunch of leaches. It's like uninsured people showing up in the ER. It drives up the price for the rest of us. Same people who hate on this hate on data caps etc. why should I pay for you to torrent 20 movies?
