Cable lobby and Ted Cruz are disappointed as FCC bans digital discrimination::FCC will investigate ISP practices that discriminate by income level or race.
if they are going to fight regulation this bad, maybe we just need to declare it a utility and strip the profit motive from these profits-over-humanity asssssssholes
“(this decision) is not compatible with the fundamental concept of free market capitalism” Sounds to me like they’re admitting that free market capitalism is bad for the people.
tbh, capitalism isn’t intended to be good for the people. It’s working as designed.
Free market capitalism only works when supported by regulatory efforts to establish an equitable marketplace that serves societal intersts

I’d say “fuck Ted Cruz” but that’s something nobody should ever do.
Ted Cruz could go fuck himself, but the risk of him asexually reproducing is too great. One Cruz is bad enough.
One Cruz is bad enough.
True
Brendan Carr complained that the order empowers the FCC “to regulate each and every ISP’s network infrastructure deployment, network reliability, network upgrades, network maintenance, customer premise equipment, installation, speeds, capacity, latency, data caps, throttling, pricing, promotional rates, late fees, opportunity for equipment rental, installation time, contract renewal terms, service termination fees,” and more.
Awesome!
Of course, given this statement, the one thing we can be sure of about these new rules is that they do not do this.

FCC under new management is a breath of fresh air. Remember this, the most punchable and shit-stain face in US politics?
Ted Cruz can go fuck himself
