Net Neutrality... here is how I, and Trump, see it. Competition breeds the best service. This is simple economic fact that can not be disputed.
Ok, without Net Neutrality, you do get service providers throttling content of certain types. But what does this cause you to do? Switch service providers. And then those providers will eventually learn why people switched, thus causing them to make them better. So you switch again. Then they start price wars with each other trying to get you to switch… See More
to them. It will take a few years, but eventually, you end up getting the best service for a far lower price than you are paying today.
I remember switching telephone services left and right in the 90's and getting hundreds of dollars of free calls every time I switched. Now, it is just one small flat rate for long distance in the US. This is just like that.
From what I have gleamed through other sites, is that people, especially in the UK, are amazed at what we pay for Internet service here in the US. While we, not knowing anything different, don't realize how much we are paying. I have no clue about the world's Net Neutrality laws, but it sounds like most places pay far less than the US and this shouldn't be the case. This is because Net Neutrality was passed to begin with... and thus eliminated competition and skyrocketed fees.
i disagree. I believe the end of Net Neutrality will allow big ISP's to act more like crack dealers than web providers. ("oh, you need 40 more websites? That'll be $400)
