Well, so it's kind of a foregone conclusion that we're going to lose Net Neutrality. Maybe it'll get held up in court, or maybe it'll end up being punted down into a state's rights issue (which would suck for most of America but probably not me on the West Coast), so I guess the question now is - if the worst comes to pass and the ISPs really rape and pillage this, what can we do?
IPSs could potentially throttle known VPNs. So..? Thoughts?
@malice My guess, and I'm no lawyer is that some consumer advocacy group may challenge action in court, arguing that internet is truly a Title II communication service and Pai interpretation and proposed rule is a violation of the Communications Act of 1934 and Section 706 of the Telecommunications Act of 1996. The other is to get all democrats and a few GOP legislator to draft a new act codifying Net Neutrality.
@USAPatriot @RAO It's definitely not. I live in Seattle, and Washington was the first state to announce a big "fuck you" against the repeal. They have every intention of enforcing those rules regardless of what the federal government says, and they're down for a fight. Last I looked, some 20 states had sued over it.
@malice @RAO of course ole Alabam draggin in the dregs fighting progress with both fists, open-mouthed and closed-minded.
