 | WOW ,, here we go again ... This subject has been covered over and over for many years and the war rages on.
Let's keep it simple: - ISP's will gouge as much as they can - in time of dialup connections the the standard was 56k and 2/3 of that for uploads [keep this in mind] - the internet was given to universities and public by USA DOD [department of national defence] for not having any real security and for sharing of knowledge for ALL. It's only when corporations came into the picture it got nasty. - internet was mostly a happy place till Microcrap [microsoft] came along. With such an insecure OS [you call that an OS hahaha] the problems began: viruses, spam, bad code, bots, zombie servers and on and on. [keep this in mind too]
- here comes ADSL & ISDN: - rates go up, bandwidth is way more expensive, users throttled to 25% or less upload speeds - cable gets online, speed war starts - war starts on Microcrap and all hell brakes loose > more spam, viruses/worms, bad code, intrusions etc. Someone forgot to tell the idiots at MS that as soon as you connect to internet you become a server - ISP's have big problems with MS boxes, charge more, way more - file sharing appz appear and ISP's scream for not buying proper amount of bandwidth, hence bandwidth hogs -ISP's create server scans and blocks
RESULTS: - internet is overloaded with MS crap: spam, spyware, big biz, worms, bots etc. - intertainment industry is up in arms about theft, which they didn't insure for, and which they can't stop anyway - big biz is bitchin' they can't get enough cash from you - ISP's bitchin' about losses which they created by allowing insecure Microcrap on net - privacy is lost due to Microcrap - ISP's not providing 2/3 upload speeds as is custom by users, ripping customers off! - users pissed about not getting proper service - government stating speeds must go up to improve economy
Solutions: - get Microcrap off internet till they provide a secure and bug free client - switch to Linux or MAC - kill spam websites and confiscate their equipment and property, maybe block those IP's at ISP level - tell entertainment industry to wake up and smell the coffee, internet is FREE for any files anyone chooses to share - You get on internet, you are an instant administrator, as an admin. when you get on OUR internet you are responsible to learn and administer your System, learn or get off! - start using respect for others or be nuked, flooded scanned etc., this includes big business idiots - block the war coming from China and likes - start using honeypots and Tarpits in a major way - encrypt the internet - ISP's better understand and anyone has the right to protect themselves and their in real time. You have $1,000 to $150,000 [or more] of equipment at home you better know how to stop an attack and be allowed to do so without being cut off by ISP. Yes Rogers, that means you.
Best for last: Keep your ISP honest by insisting on full services of internet. They are an ISP and Not a blocking service or cops. Test full speeds and sustained full speeds without repercussions. If they advertise a 15 MB connection it better be so, Sustained and Unlimited. Of that it better be 2/3 uploads or more. If you see your ISP not providing said [advertised] services charge them, send them a bill for loss of service. They can be charged for FRAUD! This will drive the prices down to where they are supposed to be.
Most of all KEEP OUR INTERNET as FREE SPEECH, SHARING and SHARING of IDEAS for BETTERMENT of ALL.
Major offenders to our internet and freedom: American big business, Security agencies, Spies, Microcrap, China, spammers, greed and anyone who opposes internet freedom.
