So you should be free to hack, steal, share child-porn etc free from governments knowing what you are doing?
What does that have to do with net neutrality?
I don't support stealing (whereas you do if you support government) and I don't support child porn. That has zero to do with mesh networks at all.

If you like rules, you should love bitcoin considering it is a protocol, a set of rules.

If you had $1 worth of bitcoin to purchase a piece of gum with $1 and they accepted your bitcoin payment, how did you benefit?
It's a deflationary currency, so there is that.

Why don't you do a Google search on "Netflix net neutrality" and tell me what you think about mesh networks as a work around.

If only it were that simple.

The blocking of content and the ability to do it? Do you even know about net neutrality?

Don't get it twisted, I support the pros of the technology. I don't support the concept of a decentralized currency network nor a decentralized internet network.
I haven't seen or been given a logical reason for either.

It is that simple, go over to GitHub and read the source code. It isn't like government rules where there are special rules that only apply to certain people and certain rules don't apply to certain people, it is universally applicable and standardized.

1. If content becomes blocked, hacking will increase. Net Neutrality does not increase hackers, it diminishes them.
2. If they try to block child pornography all that is going to happen is that the interested parties will develop new workarounds.

You are dense. Bitcoin itself is just a currency. I have no problems with it.

After two decades online, I’m perplexed. It’s not that I haven’t had a gas of a good time on the Internet. I’ve met great people and even caught a hacker or two. But today, I’m uneasy about this most trendy and oversold community. Visionaries see a future of telecommuting workers, interactive libraries and multimedia classrooms. They speak of electronic town meetings and virtual communities. Commerce and business will shift from offices and malls to networks and modems. And the freedom of digital networks will make government more democratic.Baloney.
Do our computer pundits lack all common sense? The truth in no online database will replace your daily newspaper, no CD-ROM can take the place of a competent teacher and no computer network will change the way government works.

Bitcoin is not just a currency. Bitcoin is a protocol that establishes a public ledger of ownership.

You invested Bitcoins into these. There for holding deeds, gold, securities, etc. AKA you traded them.
Please explain how you can both spend and keep the same bitcoin.

The bitcoin to which I refer is a currency. You talk about its worth all the time, how you use it to buy shite. How it is worth $X.
Please provide substance......

They are derivative layers of bitcoins. The bitcoins are proofs of ownership. Like I said, public ledger of ownership.
