      Take your BS politics elsewhere.

      No - you can go elsewhere. Had enough of your attitude.

      Net Neutrality is important to projects like ours.

        What attitude? I disagree with your viewpoint, so what? Any view point is welcome as long as its yours?

        The OPs subject, no matter how you feel about it is political. There are loads of places on the internet to discuss it. Why here? It is not on topic.

            I always felt that General Disarray was overshadowed by Professor Chaos.

              The irony: this is the same guy who said "Being friendly is just the right thing to do".

                The irony is strong with this one. @Jeff_Birt People here are polite, you aren't weren't.

                You could have said: I disagree, bla bla reason reason. And we would have had a proper discussion. You acted like a piss drunk in a bar and the bouncers did their job. Remember why it is called a Gentlemen's club and not Brawler's club.

                      @lilbud thanks for raising awareness on this. I had no idea tomorrow was such a day - probably because of me being based in Europe.

                            I think Net Neutrality is good Policy. Policy is related to, but not the same as Politics. I had the chance to work as a professional advocate for Net Neutrality during the last US presidential administration helping the Policy navigate the Politics which was a formative experience for me.

                            Some may not know that the last administration was not initially backing net neutrality either. Of course, we thought we'd 'won' a few years ago, just to have it open back up as a political issue now. The struggle to have policy be grounded in real life never ends...

                              @redbatman I'm in an area with a Comcast monopoly. It sucks having no better option.

                                Using this site, you can write a comment to the FCC, urging them to keep Net Neutrality.
