Topic: Net Neutraility - cancel your subscriptions, even if just for a month - page 2. (Read 1149 times)

ISPs are slowing bandwidth in order to extort everyone into paying even more on top of already insane rates. 96% of customers in the US have 2 or less choices for ISPs. These companies are losing ground as people cancel cable tv plans as they are increasingly using the internet for entertainment. They are attempting to extort customers into signing back up by using anti-competitive practices to hurt their competition. This is beyond entertainment.

These companies are going to strangle the economy as well as limit our ability to freely communicate by throttling the speeds of any inconvenient content. Even if you don't live in the US this is also your problem as the majority of internet infrastructure and services are located in the US. Cancel your cable tv plans and ISP packages even if just for a month. This can not go unchallenged. If it does say hello to internet service plans where you pay extra for using amazon, youtube, or netflix, on top of your already overpriced plans, and expect quality to drop across the board as it is used as a tool to force you into premium services. CANCEL YOUR SUBSCRIPTIONS. Even if it is just for a month. The only thing companies like this understand is when you take a big wet bite out of their asses. Don't let this behavior go unchallenged! What happens when they start throttling cryptocurrencies?
