  The things NN is trying to “solve” was never an issue either

    Net neutrality is the status quo, it's not trying to "solve" anything

      If it was the status quo then why have rules?

        To. Protect. It.

        You really have no idea what you're talking about, do you?

        Because companies like to make money by breaking the status quo when there aren’t any rules.

        It’s the thing they like to do most honestly, and why we need to make rules when we see open loopholes

    Then it shouldn’t be an issue to implement it then right?

      But there’s never been an issue… Should Netflix pay more for their increased traffic… Yes, it’s not equal to my browsing.

        This is totally missing the point. What happened is the equivalent of the bus company calling the supermarket and saying “hey, I’ve noticed a lot of people going to your store. If you want to keep that, you’ve got to pay extra so I don’t drop half the busses from your route”

        They do.

        Do you think Netflix connects to the internet for free?

    I’m enjoying watching you dig this massive pit for yourself. Lol
