Title: It's that time again, it's time to do your part to Support Net Neutrality Post by: Quantus on May 09, 2017, 06:06:21 PM For the Bitcoin network to function optimally we need a free and open internet.
Currently all Internet service providers in the US are regulated under Title 2 of the Communications act of 1934. Current laws governing Net Neutrality were put into place by (R) Tom Wheeler under the Obama Administration, they prevent ISPs from throttling Bitcoin traffic. The FCC has been taken over by lobbyists and is now run by a lawyer from Verizon. The FCC is about to repeal all of the laws protecting the free and open internet we enjoy today. I beg everyone who loves Bitcoin to go to gofccyourself.com (http://gofccyourself.com) hit express and leave a comment. You should also send a e-mail to Ajit.Pai@fcc.gov the chairman of the FCC and tell him how much you care about a free and open internet. (or you could do what I did and just insult his big ugly mug and accuse him of being a pedophile *shrug* ) You should also call, fax and e-mail any government representatives you can and demand that ISPs remain under Title 2 of the Communications act of 1934. tldr: Video version https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=92vuuZt7wak (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=92vuuZt7wak) Title: Re: It's that time again, it's time to do your part to Support Net Neutrality Post by: franky1 on May 09, 2017, 06:20:31 PM OP's topic explained via "last week with john oliver"
OP's video may not be available in some countries. some other videos have parts snipped out. but here is one that explains it but has the video reflected / mirror imaged. so still not perfect https://youtu.be/aL2nJ8WgAhc?t=1m17s Title: Re: It's that time again, it's time to do your part to Support Net Neutrality Post by: Quantus on May 10, 2017, 09:41:02 AM Two Democratic senators are demanding answers from the Federal Communications Commission about its response to distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks that temporarily prevented the public from commenting on a controversial proposal to dismantle net neutrality rules. https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2017/05/after-net-neutrality-comment-system-fails-senators-demand-answers/ People are now accusing the FCC of faking a Ddos attack so people can't leave comments.

The move to end the open and free internet is a desperate move to have control to all data that is being transmitted on the web. Possibly this will be the moment that all datas being thrown to the internet will pass through the supercomputers of the government. The DDos attacks were probably self induced and were done so that they cannot see the clamor of the masses.

This is one of the reasons why Bitcoin will never be accepted as a
currency in the USA, but rather viewed as a commodity or just another payment network like PayPal. It is not in the interest of the people with the power to have a FREE internet and currencies that are not being manipulated by them. >:( >:( >:( >:( Title: Re: It's that time again, it's time to do your part to Support Net Neutrality Post by: Holliday on May 10, 2017, 04:08:15 PM The only way to have true "net neutrality" is for there to exist a functional global decentralized mesh network ran by individuals.
Everything short of the is pissing in the wind.

Americans would put profit before any other single thing and round on anyone who attempted to stop them from doing it.
