An Appreciation of Exemplary Propaganda
Brock Lorber"Net neutrality" is the shoot-to-kill justification advocates want to use against owners of private property for the crime of slowing electrons. You have to admire propaganda that makes it seem reasonable, and your idea.
Awesome job, Brock. After reading the referenced article was dumbfounded. You've succinctly described how I felt about it. I'd wanted to comment on his article, but didn't want to waste the energy required to address it.
Thanks!
Actually, the only real ownership involved is the content ownership. The pipes, once build should be a standard utility bearer like water pipes and electrical wires. What the anti-neutrality people are attempting to do is say that some "water" or "electricity" is more privilege than other water or electricity. But we all pay by the amount of water we consume so where is there a justification for making some pay more or pay the same for poorer (slower) delivery?
Samantha, first things first. Assuming you are 100% correct and someone scripts a delay or creates a larger-than-normal buffer on a server based on the originating IP, are you willing to kill them? Have them killed?
