No, I am not teaching you ow the internet works, got take a class or three before making stuff up that you don't know about. As simple as I can put it, you don't limit when you configure prioritization.


Sure, not explicitly. But in practice, the speed to other websites has to go down.

if it's traditional IP, like a web site l8ke natiojstates where time (in milliseconds) doesn't really matter, not at all.

If there's enough bandwidth being taken away to make an appreciable benefit to high-bandwidth and/or delay-dependent services (and I noticed the sudden switch from bandwidth to delay time there), then there is necessarily enough bandwidth being taken away to have a significant impact on whatever it's being taken from.

No, traditional IP applications that are store and forward don't care, nothing is getting dropped. Applications that are time sentive that are not designed for IP like voice, or two way video can be effected by latency and jitter caused by other traffic being prioritized ahead of it.

Again you really don't know what you are talking about, tbf most of the people in this tbread don't either.

As a IT student in high school studying for my Comp TIA A+ cert. I still struggle with a lot of the networking stuff. But you are true in what you say, I both about your IP claims, and the fact that most people don't know what the fuck they are talking about.
Im a slightly Authoritarian Moderate, I believe limited monarchies are the best systems of government, and that every 2016 presidential candidate was an idiot.
I personally feel that most people, in the act of trying to sound smart, often usually don't know what the fuck they are talking about.

Non-BIAS services have always been prioritized to go first. (Well since the core routers could do prioritization anyway).

I know some isp's did throttle and block at times but how well that worked for them was kinda iffy.

Well blocking and throttling was typically done for economics reasons instead of performance reasons.

IE, cable companies throttled netflix and hulu because it competed with their own offerings, Verizon blocked Google Wallet because it competed with their own digital pay app ISIS (yes, that's literally what it was called), etc.

ISIS is an excellent routing protocol I wish we used it. Say that in a meeting sometimes. "I like ISIS, let's switch to it".

Didn't Verizon or at&t, block Skype and Facetime for similar reasons.

You are continuing to disingenuously conflate latency and bandwidth. And this is still all irrelevant, because such things are already allowed.

Acording to the FCC, developement of equipment and applications that can take advantage or require low latency and jitter.

To make a guess, it will increase investments in companies that are developing ad-hoc wireless networks for autonomous driving, or the manufacturers of the network equipment that supports such application prioritization.

Yes, indeed. And to squeeze money out of you, they have to give you something that you want. The government doesn't need your satisfaction-they can tax you either way. But if a private entity doesn't give you a product that you like, they don't make any money, and out of business they go.

Sounds like we should be cutting down on the government regs that set that system up then, doesn't it?

And now you're trying to make argument number two for governments to stop trying to make "natural" monopolies out of ISPs.

Well, I have more competing options in government than I do for ISPs. That's because, like other utilities, the infrastructure costs are so extreme to setup an ISP, they often form natural monopolies or oligopolies, which are not responsive to the needs of the people at all, being both unelected AND having no need to listen to me.


Costs that are heavily inflated by government meddling in the process. What you get is government hurdles put in the way of startups, the government considering ISPs "natural" monopolies, and then suddenly the demand for federal regulation to solve the problem that was created by regulation in the first place.

Look at Comcast.


Which brings us, again, as most of these things do, to getting the hurdles and regulations out of the way of startups.

You seem to be living in some fantasy world where people can simply choose to use another ISP, or that infrastructure based startups are easy with current cartels, where this isn't the case in reality. Are you just pushing a party line? Cause this is what your free-market fanboy-ism sounds like.
