FCC to repeal Net Neutrality Bill

[Soldati Senza Confini]

So why didn't it happen when I was in college back in 2007? I don't remember university websites and online services being lacking in quality.

Because rules were put In place in 2004. Those rules are gone now. It is not just the 2015 rules. They got rid of all the rules. Ajit Pai thinks there shouldn't be any rules.

They just reclassified internet services from Title II to Title I, you know, what happened back in 2015; they can't get rid of the Telecom Act or it applying to companies.

But Soldati, facts and reasoning will keep Flutters from screaming endlessly about losing his "oxygen". That's not fair to him, you know. >.>

Mea culpa

Did you? Supposition isn't worth losing your shit over.

Actually it is because we are now in a state of regulatory uncertainty.

If I find myself worrying about something, I ask myself one question.

Can I, personally, do anything to change this?

If the answer is "no", then I make a conscious effort to stop worrying about it. Worrying about things you can't change is a waste of time and energy.

In this day and age education is dependent on the internet. To say otherwise would be foolish. I did most of my assignments with the internet.

On Microsoft Word maybe, but you could hypothetically do your assignments by hand if you had no computer. You'd just have to figure things out with the teacher. I promise you, as someone who has written many, many notes in notebooks stacked-up high in my room, you will not die if you have to use loose-leaf. Helps you practice good penmanship.

I’ve pretty much have to hand write everything

Not a bad thing.

Why hand write when you can type, and no I do not mean computers.

why type when you can wave flags

What about research? Most research is done on the internet

[Dylar]

What about research? Most research is done on the internet

Encyclopedias and textbooks exist.

[Thermodolia]

Not a bad thing.

I’ve done both or technically all three

There’s this wonderful place called a library. It’s full of everything you could ever need

Don't sugarcoat this. The internet is the only definitive place for research in the digital agem

You aren't picking up your pen(cil) point as much when you handwrite versus when you print, which means your forearm and fingers are contracting less often. That means less cramps (particularly during essay examinations at the end of term) and more notes.

I’m not sugarcoating anything. No it’s not. There are plenty of things and places that can be used for research without the internet.

Things such as: encyclopedias, dictionaries, medical journals, published research papers, research libraries, libraries, and the library of Congress.

No I’m not. I’m being realistic.

I didn’t know that the internet is a holy site now. It’s really not a big deal. My life will go on. The world continues to turn

It is a big deal. Ajit Pai has acted against the American people, obstructed investigation into potentially criminal fraud in the comment process and made great mockery of his opponents, internet users everywhere, with one of the worse videos on YouTube. He has desecrated the role of the FCC just as people describe Donald Trump desecrating the presidency.

[Luminesa]

What about research? Most research is done on the internet

*Stares at massive, four-story library on LSU Campus.*
*Largest comprehensive library I think in the entire state.*

*Looks at stack of Nat-Geo magazines in my room.*
*Church History textbook on bottom shelf.*

There's something called, "Read a book."

Ajit Pai deserves death threats because he made fun of you in an internet video? Yes. That is more certainly the correct position on this particular issue. Death for mockery.

You haven't seen the video, have you? Also don't put words into my mouth.

How do you call yourself a Christian, when you elevate a man-made invention to a sacrament? Nobody is sugarcoating anything, you have an internet addiction, and I also an apparent phobia of *GASP* opening a book.
