FCC to repeal Net Neutrality Bill

[Ethel mermania]

Same internet speed for each and every website which is part of internet nuetrality.

When has anyone actually called for that rather than just "no artificial slowdowns"?

Many people in this thead have argued against paid prioritization.

Which comes under "no artificial slowdowns".

Once again a lack of understanding of how the internet works. One has nothing to do with the other. Prioritization works without rate limiting.

If I lived in America, I would be downloading a VPN right now.

I already did in this thread. They are separate configuration steps. One does not require the other.

Why?

[Entronium]

What if they could slow down VPN as well?

[Holy Tedalonia]

What if they could slow down VPN as well?

Do I hear a conspiracy theory coming...

[Galloism]

What if they could slow down VPN as well?

They could. It's just that VPNs are typically encrypted, so they couldn't slow down just parts of the VPN data because they are not really able to differentiate the different data within the tunnel. It would be all or nothing.

[Naval Monte]

Out of curiosity where would one be able to download a VPN for free?

And how does the data get to the vpn server? All a VPN would do would be to slow you down. The already segregated data will go to the vpn server instead on you, get encrypted, then forwarded to you be decrypted before the data is presented to the user. A aVPN is good for data encryption, and hiding who is getting the data. As far as speed goes, a VPN just slows shit down.

Once again anyone talking about a VPN solution for net neutrality does not know what the fuck they are talking about.

Exactly - unless ISPs start to do what they were doing before net neutrality by wholesale blocking certain sites, data, services, etc that were critical of the company or competed with the company's other products. In that case, a VPN would be useful to get to those places and services blocked by their ISP.

But it does involve slowdowns.

Why?

So ISPs can't be a dick to me and block certain sites

[Galloism]

Why?

So ISPs can't be a dick to me and slow down or even block certain sites

They will be able to slow down VPNs wholesale. VPNs are useful for getting around blocks, but not slowdowns.

Currently, no isp is threatening to do such, it can change of course.

How many days until the internet is great again?

[Southeastern Xiatao]

The Internet is a luxury. It is a privilege and not a right. Those are not your lines, not your infrastructure, not your hosts. It is your ISP's property and they have a right to use it as they see fit.

You know that is bullshit. Internet is used in everyday life now in today's world, we need to use internet to look stuff up and to do research in schools. Because going to a library and checking out books for your research still gives you ONLY A LIMIT amount of resources. You now pay your taxes and insurance online as well, which takes a lot quicker than doing it over the phone with a long wait. AND PLUS, jobs mostly do applications online now. You don't simply walk into a workplace asking if you can have a job, it doesn't fucking work like that anymore.

You need to Internet in order to go about your daily life. We have gotten to a point that we cannot live without it.

Turtle you know how stupid you sound and I suggest you quit it. I can obviously tell what you said was in something you know was bullshit.

And I would recommend you refrain from calling people stupid. You've been around long enough.

If you can get better internet by paying more, there should also be an option for sparkling water with the water companies.

End water neutrality. Shift the pH!

Free VPNs exist.

The free VPNs in my experience, are inferior to the paid VPN services. Your internet surfing will be slower than browsing without one activated, but a paid one might be of good enough quality in terms of features and service, that your browsing speed would be bearable.
