Title: What would the repeal of Net Neutrality mean for mining in the US?
Post by: cpmcgrat on December 13, 2017, 10:08:58 PM
With the vote to repeal Net Neutrality in the US tomorrow, it looks like it is going to occur along party lines (3-2 in favor). What will this mean for mining operations/servers in the US?

More than likely, not much. Mining doesnt cause a whole bunch of internet traffic but it does use a whole bunch of electricity.

The FCC vote will really only affect internet traffic so there shouldn't be much to worry about unless you're a big YouTube/Netflix/Hulu/etc streamer
