The Death Of The Internet - The best bloopers are a click away
I posted this vid some time ago but feel it's still a very important issue because the fight is still going on. There's lots of misinformation about regulating the internet and I'm afraid most people are on the fence on this issue.

Net neutrality believes the government should make the internet a level playing field through regulation. Hands Off The Internet believes the government should stay out of the internet altogether.

On one hand you have AT&T, Verizon, and Bell South lobbyists throwing huge amounts of cash to the government to allow them to regulate the internet, and on the other, you have AT&T, Verizon, and Bell South pushing real hard to regulating it themselves through acquisition.

What a bleak prospect.

Internet 2 is under construction because the powers that be insist the internet is broken and needs improvement in order to be useful for continued business operations like faster streaming video but we all know this is bullshit as usual.
The internet works fine. The only problem is it's not giving AT&T and Bill Gates enough control and market share.

I don't know what to tell you other than keeping congresses feet to the fire to keep the internet the way it is as our last bastion of freedom without regulating it.

After all, when was the last time business or congress did anything that didn't screw everyone but themselves?
