Two thoughts about Net Neutrality.
First, what could be the grim reality:
It’s very simple. Once we have lost Net neutrality and the access providers are given a free hand to charge Internet companies for delivering their bits faster and more reliably than their competitors’ bits, we will experience this simply as how the Internet works, not as an artificial constraint put in to benefit the access providers.
The argument continues that this will destroy advancement and innovation. Read the whole post here.
David Barton is probably a name you don’t recognize. However, he has the ear of Mike Huckabee (who thinks that everyone should be forced, at gunpoint no less, to listen to Barton’s message of Christian Theocracy of the United States). He says that Jesus railed against Net Neutrality.
I’ll let that sink in for just a moment.
I’m hoping you were able to shove the leaking gray matter back into your brain. It hurts so much. I don’t ever remember Jesus saying something along the lines of “And blessed are the corporations, who pay to have their information delivered in a more timely manner, telling us what is important, via the intertubes. Cursed are those who believe that all data should be delivered at the same speed and with the same preference, for theirs is a miserable life, cursed to burn for all eternity.”
Amen.
