Going to be interesting times, in a bad way. Everyone knows now in the US the newly appointed FCC chairman is going to be Brendan Carr, who is against the idea of Net Neutrality so we expect that to go away again similarly to how Ajit Pai got rid of it when he was around.

Should anyone be worried about what this guy can do? Will he carry on the fight for entertainment industry’s interests?

Okay, can we focus on the subject matter instead of just devolving it into a stupid meme and treating this platform like it’s reddit? Come on, grow up and I’ve blocked half of you already.

    against the idea of Net Neutrality

    Did this ever actually do anything. The only change I noticed was that shortly after it was repealed we could actually watch YouTube videos at my mother-in-law’s hosue (I’m assuming they were paying HughesNet to be able to make their content go faster than the artificially throttled maximum).

      Companies are going to be slow to adopt to these kind of changes when there’s a possibility that they’ll get changed back again in a few years
