1. Finally after years of knowing about Ajit Pai has finally been part of something good

Sure it's making fun of him, and Ajit Pai is still a dishonest piece of garbage, but it's progress of a sort.

9. hehehe

Will he "get it," though?

Probably not.

10. Brilliant.

11. It might not play out quite that way

If net neutrality goes away, it would likely be We Rate Dogs that would be charged more for their site to load quickly, or at all.

[Hekate]

14. ? That is the entire point of the post

[Fiendish Thingy]

15. I believe the post referenced increased costs for the viewer/user

My point is it is more likely that ISP's will gouge domain holders to optimize the lading speeds of their pages, rather than their,own customers. Sites that compete with ISP's (Netflix vs ATT's streaming service) may not even be allowed to stream, or will be charged huge fees (raising Netflix rates) to provide crappy streaming quality.

Big retailers such as Amazon can afford these fees, and will shut out other sites whose pages load slowly or not at all.

This is far more insidious than people realize .

I'm not going to bother to post the address. If it takes you longer than fifteen seconds to find it, you're just not trying.
