Coming Soon đ At the beginning of April, youâll be
introduced to a brand-new GoComics! See more information here. Subscribers, check your
email for more details.
In all honesty, the only way to have net neutrality would be for he federal government to completely take possession of the internet. There would be no internet providers, just the Feds. Letâs take a quick look at that scenario, shall we.With the Feds totally owning the internet, you would have:
1. No porn. Think of the FCC and broadcast networks. No one would be able to cuss, show a womanâs bare chest, (although for the life of me, I canât see how they allow men to flaunt theirs),2. The post office would finally be able to charge for emails. There would be only one email provider and if you spam, illegally hack into someoneâs email, it would be a federal offense. Also, you wouldnât be able to send naughty pictures because the Feds control it.3. The Feds could read all your email without faking it to get a search warrant from our Top Secret Court. The Feds would know every web site you have ever went and it would be forever.4. The Feds could take away your right to have internet.5. The Feds would tax the internet and the Federal Government would know your checking acct info., and all business that you do. So, they could charge you on your purchases, and the states would be able to charge sales taxes.6. Because of all the neat things in your house, like TVâs, refrigerators, radios, etc., your information could be sold easily to businesses and you would get tailor made ads every time you got onto your computer. They could make sure that your heating/cooling system was set to 68 degrees in the winter and 75 degrees in the summer.
These are just some of the things would come with net neutrality. So, are you sure you want net neutrality?
This time, little Sue did indeed listen to Rita and believed. So she abandoned her letter and began searching YouTube for âHow to Pick a Gun Lock.â
seems like the net neutrality is the new k2k. everybody talks about it but half of the people donât know what it means, then we end with things like ây2k compliant bread toasterâ and ây2k compliant light bulbâ and ây2k compliant pencil eraserâ.Once again, net neutrality has nothing to do wheter usa government is in charge of part of the internet (as it has already been, with no problem whatsoever). is the fact that carriers decide on the content given to the users, by blocking content from certain sites, or even changing it. Its about carriers, not government.. and no, it is not about google and amazon monopolizing, if they take a lot of traffic is because a lot of people want to check those sites, is about google (or youtube) and amazon being blackmailed, so if they donât pay special fees to carriers, they just say âyour pages can not be seen through our channels, no matter what the user wantsâ
I was waiting for Sue to show up (sheâs my favorite female character). I notice she has what appear to be green ribbons in her hair, instead of her usual green earrings which the adult Sue always wears! Sheâs always very distinctive⊠Interesting look as an approx. ten year old: freckles and especially with the braces, an unfortunate feature common to that age group (yeah, me too for a while).
