Well I think you are a massive idiot.
said by cpsycho:How far we have come in this day and age. The internet has been "THE" tool for the last couple of decades. It started with mostly porn but has evolved into a universe on its own.
This new universe threatens these large company's business model, more compitition poping up everywhere. Divide and counquer they will try, they will fail. Reason; the company im with does not have caps and they do not throttle. They have their equipment in bells CO. They are also running fiber straigt to the home in some locations(I like this idea very much).
I think their should be government funding in helping these smaller company's to try and build the same network. Cable TV has had its day in the sun. But as we all know the sun sets so a new day arises, a better brighter day. Most of these companys now have had government funding to help grow. I think these smaller company's should have the same right. Also another idea is; to let the government build the network and rent it out to these smaller company's. Then poor rogers and bell will be up the creek without a paddle.
I think the UN should get involved and make a net neutrality constitution. To make sure that this very important tool never losses its purpose in bringing the world together.
My net is used for so much more then surfing and email. I use it for everything I do, almost like its a utility. I use it to shop, to do business, to stay in contact with people, to play games and to download different things. I hate TV, the shows are boring and there is more repeats then anything. I dont want cables and telcos telling me what I should be doing. I pay for my service and I will use it how I see fit.
Its not our problem they are hemoraging cash like crazy with no one buying ad space on their tv programming. From what I have watched(usualy just to catch news). I see rogers commercials more and more and more. Just to fill in the blank space. I have family and friends noticing this trend as well.
The internet itself competes against cable and telco company's and they just noticed a year ago. What a joke these companys are.
