No. And we're going to have even more tech-illiterate old buffoons in offices where they'll understand even less technology but they're great at destroying things. So, they'll happily line the pockets of ComCast, AT&T, Verizon and they'll do fuck all to improve customer experience. In fact, if things go their way, they'll bring back the idea of forcing you to choose whether you want to pay premium for high speed internet including the ridiculous limits already in place. That or they'll give you the slow-lane subscription while talking down to you about having to pay so little to get so little and their data caps is even more restrictive, never mind how little you'll be able to actually do on the slow lane.

Isn't it wonderful?! /s

I prefer TPB AFK. Since all founders were involved in that one. Why make a TV show based on TPB?

Good luck trying to essentially end one of the biggest industries that's partly in contributing on keeping the country going.

But that's like what's already been happening. It'll just be business as usual.

Which might be a blessing in disguise? I mean, for the ISPs that have been actively fighting corporate interests from telling them what to do. With no governmental branch telling them what to do and not wanting to lose many subscribers lest they risk going out of business, then isn't that a net positive?

 

So, do any pirates here have a grasp in what this asshole feels towards piracy in general? Should we be worried? I'm worried he'll install an FCC that'll work against internet rights, that's one concern.

I'd like to hear what thoughts you have.
