FCC to regulate the Internet

[milkmanjoe]

I really didn't think Obama's idea of Federal oversight of the Internet could become reality. Look like I was wrong. These people are grabbing way too much power over our lives. Hell, in China if people demonstrate the Elites just turn the Internet off so they cannot communicate. That can happen here soon, unless Internet providers tie this up in court....

Well lets see CIA and NSA look at all internet searches and reads a lot of emails, and listens on a lot of cell phone calls...............

Even if I thought they were doing it for a good reason, which I don't, nothing this so called administration touches turns out well.

They are claiming to want to stop Internet providers of regulating speed vs. cost. At some point Freedom of Speech will be infringed. This is a smokescreen to control our online communication. Write you your local Representative.....immediately. Have your family/friends write.

Although as a consumer net neutrality is good, it really kicks free enterprise in the nuts. But then the lack of competition in broadband did that too.
