but Ted Cruz… spokesman for GOP right wingers who all know everything about everything and anyone who doesn't agree with them is a communist… said that this is Obamacare for the internet.
You stupid libtard.
Very good news indeed! Unless of course you listen to Glenn beck or Rush, in which case you probably believe that this means Obama is going to be taking down all your favorite websites soon...
In all seriousness though, net neutrality is very important for keeping the internet a free place, and making it so you don't have to bend over any more for Comcast or Verizon than you already do.

**** that was 2 days ago im ****ing retarded. No it wasn't aimed at you I'm just a dork.
The correct answer is just to force ISP's to publicize any websites which they throttle back. Then the free market could take its course.
to ensure a free and open internet...we're going to give the government free reign to regulate the piss out of it? Because they've obviously demonstrated time and time again they have our best interests at heart and would NEVER abuse any power given to them. evAr.
So you would rather Comcast and Time Warner to manage the internet?
I just hate that we as America have decided we are the ones in control of the whole thing and **** anybody else, that part does aggravate me. I don't think anyone has rights over what this has become and it maybe too little to late to control it anyways.
I'm upset this costs $47 a month with 250 GB:
When this costs $70 a month:
Also the fact that Netflix had to pay to let it's customers use it's product is amusing.
Companies fight technology if it hurts their bottom line.
The big deal is the broadband as a utility part. This allows people AKA Google to use already-in-place (AIP) infrastructures to run their Fiber service around. If you haven't heard of Google Fiber than you need to and then start pushing for it. Google it.
Not always, but they are elected, so we can vote them in and out. And they're definitely more on the consumers side than businesses are. 99% of the time if a CEO can make a buck by screwing over customers they will, and then they'll spin it so you think they were doing you a favor.
That's true in a lot of cases, but internet is one of those things where the competition in any given region is slim to none. If you don't like you're cable provider then your other options are DSL, Dish, or wireless internet, all of which are vastly inferior to cable. They have monopolies on given regions like the phone companies of old, that's why I', glad they're nor regulated as utilities. Normally I agree with you about government babysitting, like in the case of motorcycle helmet laws and things like that...
I think South Park sums up best why this is a good thing:
