As soon as someone asks comcast why they're giving a platform to nazis by serving hate sites, we probably will see censorship. But before that happens they're probably going to block udp connections to keep you from torrenting. But remember, this is a good thing because muh zog emprah said so.

Right now they're trying to pass a law which will extend copyright on music to 144 years after the artist's death.

The way net neuatrlity functions is that it grants corporations the ablity to use fast lanes. "Hate speech" sites like Stormfront haven't been touched by ISPs because they're not profitable.
No.1453689
>>1453665
The way net neutrality functions is that it implements a rule that says ISPs have to treat all data equally. Without it, yes, they can implement fast lanes for a higher price, but they can also do literally whatever the fuck they want with any data that passes through their infrastructure. They can implement slow lanes and make you pay extra for the normal lanes. They can throttle competitors to their business partners. They can block access to websites they deem harmful. They can slow down or block types of traffic associated with piracy. They can offer internet packages like cable companies offer tv packages, granting you access to only so many websites depending on which package you purchase.
It's true that most of this hasn't happened yet, and we're lucky for that. Some of these things might never happen, that's true too. Given a long enough timeline, however, it's very common for internet services to ban hate speech and copyright infringement. If nothing else comes to pass, those two restrictions most likely will. Corporations now have the legal right to de-platform wrongthinkers and pirates; how long do you think they'll refrain from doing so?
No.1453696
This is speed throttling across the entire network, not selective fast/slow lanes.
Throttling is legal and always has been.
For the videos, I assume they mean that's what the throttle speed would be capable of streaming 1:1 without buffering, as there's literally no way of stopping every single video player in the world from producing anything over 480p.

Throttling is found worldwide and has been since ISPs were providing anything more advanced than dial-up speeds.
I remember having to pay triple my dial-up cost for ADSL, and then double again for ADSL2+ a while later.
Maybe if you were older than 15 and not getting your information from distorted news sites that are trying to shove a political opinion down your throat, you'd realise this isn't actually anything to do with Net Neutrality.
If you still want to think it is, then I'll remind you that throttling speeds affects the user's entire access to the internet, not selective sites.

You do know that the rumor that ISPs would start pulling that shit was based off information from another country with an even shittier government, right? The law barely worked and comcast, AT&T, Spring, Verizon, and all the rest constantly broke the rules and at worst, the FCC gave them a light slap on the wrist and then let them do the same shit over and over again. The law is and will always be punitive, not preventative.

Oh and I forgot to add, there was also data caps, which would throttle you down to dial-up after you exceeded the limit.
This isn't related to Net Neutrality and the FCC has allowed it since the inception of commercial internet access.
Again, if you weren't an underaged faggot whose parents pay the internet bill each month, you would have experience with a data plan that isn't unlimited.
