FCC has voted to repeal net neutrality rules that “restrict the power of internet service providers to influence loading speeds for specific websites or apps.”
There were some in favor and some against the verdict. While some commented that the lack of regulations would definitely have an impact on how consumers take advantage of the internet, others were completely unaffected by it. However, Ted Cruz made his opinion quite clear on the hot topic.
Snowflake, believing online propaganda: "OMG w/o net neutrality, the Internet is gone!" Informed observer: "You know, the FCC issued that rule in 2015. The Internet grew up wonderfully free from govt regulation & this restores the status quo ante." Snowflake: "Uh, never mind…"

Not to mention the time when Ted Cruz liked the porn video who’s screenshot is shown above. I mean, come on! It was just by accident, right?
Are you the Snowflake or the guy sadly jerking off to slow-loading Twitter porn?

Your efforts to paint yourself as an 'informed observer' are transparent and pathetic. And the 'online propaganda' you refer to is actual fact.
The #GOP has a history of erasing consumer protections, so your complete disregard for #NetNeutrality is not surprising.

Oof this is a rough script man, I have a lot of notes. Going to take a page 1 rewrite.

So if the rule makes no difference, why did ISP companies spend $30 mill lobbying to change it?

Snowflake here.
Since the days of ARPAnet the network has relied on treating all network traffic equally. This is the heart of the Internet as a concept. The ruling in 2015 cemented those rules to protect consumers. Computer History 101.

When you use a telephone, you expect your call to be treated equally to everyone else’s, and not blocked or throttled based on who you are or what you are saying.
This is even more important on the internet. However much Comcast is paying you to deny it.
