> Pai merely proposes ... This is met with furious uproar

His proposal would enable ISPs to make access to some content slower, or more expensive, than others.

His proposal does nothing to resolve existing broadband monopolies.

Many people like the way the internet works today and do not want Pai's policies to pass. We don't want more silos or limited access to content. People are making their voices heard because they feel strongly about this issue.

Do you not fear that regulatory capture would leave us with the worst of both worlds?

[unityByFreedom]

We're in a state of regulatory right now and it is a worse world. It's not hypothetical

[cobbzilla]

are you implying that despite the regulatory capture that has already occurred, somehow further regulations will not subsequently be captured? there is a saying about the person who does the same thing again and again expecting a different result.

Are you implying that even after you solve a problem, there are still other problems, so the best thing to do is to do nothing? There is a word for people who do nothing and criticize those who act.

I never implied that there were no problems, please do not put words in my mouth. My point was merely that centralizing control of the Internet is exactly what the oligarchs want, and you are carrying water for them. Why is the EFF against NN while AT&T is for it? Thanks for helping the multi-billion dollar company, I'm sure they appreciate it.
