Logical next step, the 400 page shame "privacy" law roll back was just the 1st step. End game is moving back under FTC that which Obama admin moved under FCC.

quote:

Mr. Trump earlier this year appointed Ajit Pai, a former lawyer for Verizon and a minority Republican member of the Federal Communications Commission, as chairman of the agency. Mr. Pai voted against the net neutrality rules as a commission member in 2015.

Lol if Trump fricks up net neutrality Republicans will never win another election. The internet is more sacred than healthcare

step 1 - allow ISP to spy and sell
step 2 - remove policy that protects customers from selective throttling - allowing the ISPS to effectively block your access to VPN software to protect yourself from isp spying.

you guys got sold a bill of goods.

Net neutrality's a farce, it's a bunch of damn lobbyists from Google, Yahoo, AT+T, Verizon, etc. fighting over open and free access to the internet regardless of who invested billions to design and build it. If y'all want unrestricted access to the internet you might as well have AT+T take it all back over just like the "Ma Bell" days and have the damn government run it....., is that what you want?

It's no secret that he wants to go after net neutrality, just look at who he's appointed to FCC chair. This is bad news for everyone

This will stifle innovation by providing unnecessary barriers to entry for internet startups. if it's not broke don't fix it, and certainly don't have the government fix it.

If any of you actually support this then I hope you're the first ones to have your internet speed throttled while streaming Netflix. This can only end badly. Internet service providers only want to make more money and don't care about you.

Exposing the ISP conglomerates one law at a time. I love it.
