I know what it is. When did Ajit Pai commit perjury?

He is going to commit perjury if he keeps selling the bullshit of net neutrality hurting investment and is heavy handed to the court. Net Neutrality has nothing to do with investment and is not heavy handed. It is just a policy that is meant to keep the internet equal.

The internet would like to disagree with that. Or else there would not be such great outbursts all over the web and massive lawsuits from all over the country. That suggests that a lot of people care about this. And no I will not give up and will find say as to do something about it. So fuck all that shit.

So It's not that no one cares. It is that you don't care and such apathy is why the bad guys almost always wins. Evil only wins when good people don't do anything, except good people are doing something about it.

Pretty much nobody in this forum cares, because you've run it into the ground. I dunno how you haven't noticed that.

So to circle back to your earlier post, courts should punish Ajit Pai for lying in policy making, even though that is not a crime.

You want to send innocent people to prison now?

For fucking over consumers and robbing them of protections so Corporate Thugs can extort and exploit them? Yes. Because that is not innocent.

Creating policies that would do great harm to consumers and lying to their faces should be wrong though and against the law.

They're not thugs. They're politicians. And as far as we know, they don't have any ties to illegal organizations...though that's irrelevant.

I fucking do need internet. I need internet to be doing what I'm fucking doing now. I need internet to do my research for school. People need internet to conduct business almost all the time now. You are acting very disingenuous claiming that the internet is not as much part of everyday life as electricity and running water.

This is far more fucking dangerous than you claim it to be. It puts information in the hands of a few corporate thugs who will soon get to manipulate it for their own gain.

I fucking do need internet. I need internet to be doing what I'm fucking doing now. I need internet to do my research for school. People need internet to conduct business almost all the time now. You are acting very disingenuous claiming that the internet is not as much part of everyday life as electricity and running water.

This is far more fucking dangerous than you claim it to be. It puts information in the hands of a few corporate thugs who will soon get to manipulate it for their own gain.


Universities will have the Net. They have always had the Net. You will just be paying more for fun use.

Because it wasn't always like that at all, and the internet access for free is not a right, it is a service provided to you and you should pay for it. There is no such thing as freedom being free as I keep trying to remind you. Not only that but you constantly ignore everything we've been saying to you and you continue to screech at us all the time, which is not gonna help you at all, it makes you seen desperate. Let a mod do something about this, because frankly this has been a waste of time and it's not even a debate anymore. It's just us against you and your endless screeching that no one wants.

Fucking hell, that is not how the internet should fucking work and you god damn know it. The way things must factually be is that you pay for the whole internet under a single price, not pay for every single ''website package" separately. Why are you downplaying all of this?
