This type of situations were there a obvious bad guy is weird to me, I dont like hating someone but I have to do, this is ridiculous.

For the good thing, this time supporting Net Neutrality is actually supporting the old establishment of Obama so I can laught to the brave freedom fighters of internet once again, I cant have do that after Trump became president!!!

Also, is fine that I said it, freedom is a meaningless term. Is not a ethical measurement for anything. The only reason why I initially wasnt interesed on this thing was because everyone was in a "freedom fighter" attitude, and usually when internet go freedom fighter, they are exaggerating things.

[up] Are you okay there? Is net neutrality really that important to be worth killing someone over? And I'm pretty sure it's against the rules to condone that kind of violence.

There’s an argument that he could face criminal charges for obstruction of justice due to his refusal to hand information over to the New York DA in the identity theaft investigation relating fake to FCC comments, but that’s it.

honestly, killing someone can make things worse and ruin a group's reputation. it's better off to him die of natural case then get assassinated or tormented. that's just screwed up.

Ok:

Tim Wu: Why the Courts Will Have to Save Net Neutrality

"...Back in 2005, a small phone company based in North Carolina named Madison River began preventing its subscribers from making phone calls using the internet application Vonage. As Vonage was a competitor in the phone call market, Madison River’s action was obviously anticompetitive. Consumers complained, and the Federal Communications Commission, under Michael Powell, its Republican-appointed chairman, promptly fined the company and forced it to stop blocking Vonage.

That was the moment when “net neutrality” rules went from a mere academic proposal to a part of the United States legal order."

So, in other words, this is likely to be challenged in court, and the author it will be overturned.

So if enough people start protesting once the thing actually goes into place would it really make a difference?

Because people are generally ignorant of complex policy measures until they can blatantly see the impact, in Elementary school phrases.
