1 edit | Dumb... Pipe We need dumb pipes. Period.
Maybe I want to download some patch or something *AND* watch a new video at the same time.
Both should go as fast and as good as the server(s) can push them.
My router and/or computer will sort it all out... and I, the guy paying for the service, will be happy about it.
when the ISPs start mucking with my connection because they think something is happening - where will it stop?
Net Nanny anyone?
What if I want to download the newest porn vid... the ISP sees it as ??? and deprioritizes it? Slows it down? Fuck that!
I want my spankage now damn it!
P2P, RS, FTP, DDL - that should be up to me and it should just work.
Who doesn't see this choking and puking?
Time to start encrypting everything end to end I suppose.

Philadelphia, PA | Look at the bright side, no need to install any net nanny type software or blocking content via DNS to prevent your kids from reaching inappropriate content. ISPs can take care of that for you.
And when you need your spankage, give ur ISP a call and ask them to let it thru. 
This is seriously becoming ridiculous. I wouldn't have even imagined that something like that would be even up for discussion ... good bye net neutrality! |

I totally agree with you. I can't understand why people at DSLR aren't screaming with years of pent-up rage over this.
They're acting like little lambs who are being lured into the wolf's den without realizing it.
Look people, any idea which violates the concept of Net Neutrality is A BAD IDEA.
Cable companies have NEVER, EVER justified their desire to 'manage' networks. They make billions and billions in profits every year, are essentially given monopoly positions by various state and local governments, and never reveal internal statistics.
All their SEC filings point to hugely profitable companies who are continually DECREASING the amount of money they invest into their networks. Why is it so hard for you to understand that?
Heavy users are merely the forerunners of the masses. They ride the wave of innovation, using new technologies that prop up creative and unique content companies. Their heavy usage forces ISPs to readjust their network forecasts and invest more into their networks.
Without heavy users ISPs would have no need to upgrade their networks, EVER.
Honestly, if people reading all the articles at DSLR and stopthecap are OK with being sliced and diced by ISPs, then I give up. |
