Net neutrality…

Well…if you have been reading the news lately, other than the election crap, I’m sure you’ve come across the current discussion on net neutrality…that is that all ISP’s have to treat all net traffic the same no matter who it is or where it comes from…and, just today, Obama came out in strong support of keeping the net the way it is, not allowing “fast lanes” for corporations and people who will pay much more for their traffic to be given special treatment which would slow down the traffic to a crawl for those of us who can’t pay. Now, that makes sense, doesn’t it? The web has worked this way since it’s inception, with all traffic being treated equally and it has worked quite well so far but the problem to the repubs is that with true neutrality, their buddies can’t screw everyone and jack the prices up…and, they can’t have that, can they? So, of course, we have Ted Cruz today saying that with true neutrality it is the same as Obamacare…huh? It’s just like everything else in this country to the repubs…if they can’t make a profit from it, then they will destroy it…just what fast lanes will do to the internet…geez…
