Politicians and corporations both leave us wanting. Just like with most elections, the population is pretty much playing a game of "who will screw us less?" whenever they take sides in a big debate like this.
- We know that some corporations will screw us for profit.
- We know that some politicians will screw us for profit.
We need to figure out who will screw us less.
In this case, it looks like both a large number of politicians and major corporations are pushing to have net neutrality defeated.
My questions would be:
Would the defeat of net neutrality be good or bad for those mining or trading currency?
Would crypto trading sites, wallets, or sites like Steemit be impacted positively or negatively from it?
Depends on the culture of the ISP corporate sector. I think the issue has been overly exagerrated. Most countries don't have NN legislation, yet the internet works just fine.
Countries who that have active government involvement in the internet are: North Korea, China and many Arab countries.
So I ask you, is it really such a bad thing to get rid of the government from the internet.
And even if the corporations decide to screw people over with tailored web packages, that will be the wake-up call for people to go into decentralization even more.
At the end of the day it's a massive shift towards libertarianism either directly or from a reactonary perspective.
Relying on the government is never a good idea.
