Anyone who expected a group of Democrats and Republicans to do anything other than continue to carry water for their corporate overlords on this issue, as with all other issues, seriously needs to have their head examined. From
the Washington Post:
The Federal Communications Commission on Thursday voted in favor of
advancing a proposal that could dramatically reshape the way consumers
experience the Internet, opening the possibility of Internet service
providers charging Web sites for higher-quality delivery of their
content to American consumers.
The plan, approved in a three-to-two vote along party lines, could
unleash a new economy on the Web where an Internet service provider such
as Verizon would charge a Web site such as Netflix for the guarantee of
flawless video streaming.
The proposal is not a final rule, but the vote on Thursday is a significant step forward on a controversial idea that
has invited fierce opposition from consumer advocates, Silicon Valley
heavyweights, and Democratic lawmakers. The FCC will now open the
proposal to a total 120 days of public comment. Final rules, aimed for
the end of the year, could be rewritten after the agency reviews the
public comments.
Again, supporting the Democratic or Republican parties in any way, shape or form is effectively tantamount to declaring oneself in active opposition to the most basic interests, rights and liberties of the people of the United States.
