RE: Burger King Whopper Neutrality DEBUNKED! - What You Need To Know About Net Neutrality

in #video7 years ago

"Let's look at this from the perspective of burger neutrality. Imagine the government came in and implemented this burger neutrality. Of course McDonalds and Burger King would support it. It goes through and every place that serves burgers has to provide it at the same price. McDonalds and Burger King survive these regulations and become the only options. They can then raise their prices as there would be no competition to worry about."

No, that's not what net neutrality is. It is not a pricing regulation. Actually, Burger King depicted it accurately, just vastly exaggerated. But then, the question is, why wouldn't they have something like a priority lane at Burger King, where you can get your burger a bit faster for paying something like a 10 % surplus? Priority boarding has been a staple at airports for years after all.

But then again, the Internet is not a burger joint...
