Thanks for watching that YouTube video! That will be 50 cents, please.
Well, it’s official. One arm of the Obama police; the FCC (Federal Communications Commission) have decided that in the interests of the people, it is best if the internet is regulated. On the 21st December 2010 the FCC ruled that internet service providers can charge customers based on amount of bandwidth they use and allow Internet providers to manage networks.
In a nutshell, here is what we can expect from the FCC ruling: -
- The beginnings of a corporate takeover of the internet.
- Ban blocking of lawful traffic.
- Carriers start rolling out pay-per-service charges (Users will have to start paying for services like farcebook, twatter, conbay, youtube, etc).
- An erosion of the last bastion of freedom which the internet (used to) offer.
Can we thank wikileaks for getting this shitfest of control under way. It was only a matter of time before the powers that be needed an excuse to lock down the internet. After all, free thought can be a dangerous thing in this so called ‘terrorist’ driven world.
Goodbye internet, you will be missed.
