I would like to make a few points. Will use Netflix for reference to points as that is most relevant since they were huge fighters against this.
The amount that this post really needs right now is more than I should give but we will see where this goes.
Can you explain to me how the regulations put forth onto the ISPs stemmed free market or monopolized them?
It does not make sense to me that people think it is okay for our ISPs to control the traffic of the internet. You state that the free market will just create a new ISP that does not block your website you'd like to go to. Unfortunate I don't think you understand how centralized the backbone of our internet is.
I pay my ISP from throughput. My ISP leases lines from another ISP, who leases lines from another ISP, and eventually it all leads back to about 4 companies. We are LEASING those lines under contract for a specific amount of bandwidth. The big Service providers that are hurt by these regulations, the one's who want to charge Netflix for more money, essentially triple dipping since they already bill both sides anyway.
It can actually create new monopolies. How are new services run out of basements on home servers ever going to grow if they do not have the ability to spend millions and bribe AT&T to have a connection that is as fast and reliable as YouTubes. By not having these specific blocks in place, it could negatively affect the ability for new innovation on the internet.
So, maybe you don't like the current ideas. Do you have other ideas on how to protect users when about 4 companies own the backbone in America. Which means they would have the ability to throttle and control traffic as they see fit to make as much profit as they can. While taking huge tax breaks because, and I paraphrase, "We provide a public service with our fiber lines."
How is someone in the Corn Fields of Illinois ever going to get a new Service Provider that doesn't block their services when everything leads back to the same source.
For real though, I am interesting in your response! Ready to learn!
