It's a FB video. Sorry, couldn't find it on YouTube except the hour long version and I'm not weeding through that to find the time stamp. Makes a great point about how NN is worthless.

I hope someone, somewhere is paying you for all this shilling.
To do this for free, or because you are the type of person to base your worldview around tribal trolling, would just be sad and indicative of a new level of partisan derangement I didn't think we could reach.

Ben is spot not.
The big boys like Google and Netflix don’t like it because it exposes them to competitors.

Mark Cuban says the same thing, "Its the dumbest stuff ever"
It says it particularly stalls innovation, because if a company is protected by law from competition, few people will challenge their dominance. "Its a demonization of a few big companies"
"It puts the content of the Internet in the hands of a few commissioners appointed every 5 years." Just like 2 years ago NN was in, now its out. in coming years companies hosting ABC could be blackballed by a 3-2 vote, and then 5 years later companies hosting XYZ could be black balled

The big boys don't like it because supporting the repeal would be horrible for their brand/image. Google Fiber basically advertises as "Hey we aren't shitty arse Comcast you should sign up with us"
Google had their IPO August 2004.. market cap ~$23b. They were pro-NN back then before they were the giant (~$715b market cap) they are now.

99.9% of the people upset have no clue what net neutrality is.

like 99.9% of the people who made public comments supporting the repeal were bots?

Key Findings:²
1. One pro-repeal spam campaign used mail-merge to disguise 1.3 million comments as unique grassroots submissions.
2. There were likely multiple other campaigns aimed at injecting what may total several million pro-repeal comments into the system.
3. It’s highly likely that more than 99% of the truly unique comments³ were in favor of keeping net neutrality.
99.12% to 99.90% of the 'organic' comments made were pro-net neutrality

I’m a Shapiro fanboy, but he’s being intellectually dishonest when he constantly brings up Facebook and Google, and never brings up Comcast or AT&T. I think Facebook and Google are well intentioned extremists that are wrong, but think they’re doing the right thing. Comcast know that they’re fricking evil though and will deliberately frick you over for any inch you give them. They’re by all standards worse.

Pointing out Google's support of NN while ignoring Comcast, et al opposition is hilarious.
It's even funnier when you consider the main argument against NN is how it "impedes access" to start ups, somehow, while ignoring the fact Google is an entity actually trying to wedge into the market and push comcast out of business
