Virgin Media CEO attacks net neutrality

»www.digitalspy.co.uk/digitaltv/a···ity.html

Hopefully Teddy and Bell are kept under control. A slippery slope is brewing folks. We must *not* step down in our efforts to move forward and keep the Net Neutral.

Interesting that "bollocks" had asterisks in the first link. Is it really such a bad word??

in the U.K. and surrounding area, yes. To convert to americanized speech... "this net neutrality thing is motherf**king joke"

Let's hope our polititions take note of this. Many have said this is what could happen without goverment intervention into the net nutrality debate and here it is happening.

Greedy dirty scum bags. If you want to be the in fast lane, you gotta pay extra???!!!

WTF!!! are these CEOs ON CRACK!!??? People are already paying a PREMIUM to be on the fast lane.... NOT THE SLOW FAST LANE!

Greedy Bastards.

I call your unethically EXCESSIVE wealth and over indulgence a load of immoral, sinful "bollocks". Robbing the relatively poor in broad daylight and having a good laugh about it. Not rich enough Richard Branson? You need to rob a couple extra billion $ and another private island?

Once of the interesting comments that was made was that if Virgin were to put the BBC's iPlayer on the bus lane as they put it that the BBC would block all Virgin IP's to it's website and offering them to get a better connection with a competing ISP

NOW THAT WOULD BE SOMETHING

That would shut these motherfuckers up when their users say they can't get to the content they want and start leaving. Then let us see who pays for their pipes. Every content provider needs to take that hardline approach and not cater to these scumbags.
