    1930’s-era utility style regulations have no business being applied to the internet in the 21st century. The best way to protect a free and open internet is to keep the heavy hand of government out of the way and let the great innovation continue.https://twitter.com/ajitpaifcc/status/933009189991079936 …

    Today, I’m proposing to repeal the heavy-handed Internet regulations imposed by the Obama Administration and to return to the light-touch framework under which the Internet developed and thrived before 2015.

        What innovation, precisely, will be gained by restricting access to websites behind a paywall?

        Obvious paywall innovations. Nice walled gardens of Internet where you pay by the hour with hidden charges and Easter eggs.

        Because a lack of regulation never leads to things like monopolies, malfeasance, corruption, or the fucking Great Depression.

        This isn't more choice, this is giving ISPs more power over what is tax payer funded technology. ISPs consistently have the worst customer service records. This is a corporate bailout that will cost us, actual people, dearly, in money and speech.

        Go and ask the opinion of the IT guy and your college aged interns, I'm sure they recognize the need for net neutrality. This is only going to create slow lanes and enable businesses to selectively censor speech. Which leads me to believe that this is what you want.

        @ajitpaifcc Thanks for throwing up another roadblock for people trying to help themselves. Students depend on a free and open internet. Job seekers depend on a free and open internet. Teachers depend on a free and open internet. Shame.
