Why doesn't anybody give a shit about Net Neutrality anymore on chans?

Cause 4chan is pro-establishment now. All the ruling class had to do was to allow their beloved meme lord to become POTUS and now they mindlessly tow the government's agenda

I remember where 4chan was a place that made fun of anything and everything, including conservatives and Nazis. Once Holla Forums rolled over for their fuhrer and turned him into a sacred cow it became a huge "no fun" zone that they ironically criticize the left for doing. I swear the whole site is filled with people who took ironic shitposting way to serious

4chan became another boring establishment site that dickrides authority 24/7. It's really sad to see, but it's happened to pretty much the entire Internet in one form or another.

4chan has been a no fun zone since chanology.

An even bigger no fun zone then after the DONALD showed up. Chanology was so long ago I try to repress that cancer from my mind

What I find far more ominous than the status of net neutrality debate in the USA, is the status of net neutrality debate OUTSIDE the USA: None, ever.

The US is the only country I'm aware of where net neutrality is thought of as something worth caring about, everywhere else is happy to let ISPs segregate access from both ends, offer private services, and even close off Internet access entirely in favor of cellular networks with intranets.

In addition to net neutrality, nearly everywhere outside the US suffers from related issues like online censorship, charging by the minute for telephone service, and slow or nonexistent internet and other telecom access outside a handful of overpopulated capitol cities (from which the bleating sheep packed into such locations mock the far larger and less urbanized US for our telecom networks).

Oh jeez, the Kurisu Makise avatarfag, the only bigger Holla Forums sperglord was MikeeUSA. His line was mostly about how any attempt at net neutrality legislation would magically give the FCC censorship powers over the Internet. He also had a meme he kept posting about how packet-sniffed throttling don exits.

The mainstream line against net neutrality from most industry figures and their shills is the "muh hooman nature"-tier argument that net neutrality "harms technological innovation", with some sort of inane attempt to describe pay-for-play discriminatory intranets as "innovative".

This isn't true at all. A lot of countries effectively have net neutrality policies, and I've heard concerns from people outside the US that if we gut ours it could fuck them over, too.

For me, the only reason is that this is one of the few chan boards I frequent now. I don't fuck around with other boards much anymore - either too dead or invaded by retards.

And I don't want to talk about it too much here because I fundamentally see it as a non-partisan issue. I care about it enough that I want to avoid playing into that narrative that it's separable by mainstream "left" and right wing politics - that didn't exist until Obama endorsed it.

To me, the appeal is basically universal - the internet, which was built with tax dollars, should not have private entities who picked up the technology controlling/censoring/charging for content they didn't create and don't own. Extortion, fraud; these are things which leftists, liberals, libertarians, conservatives… almost anyone can understand these concepts and what's wrong with them.

On top of that, we already have communications companies who work with the state for surveillance purposes. It's obvious that if we enable them to do so for censorship purposes, they will not turn down government dough.

I'm watching the news stream about Net Neutrality every day, and I'm calling - and now that I'm talking about it here, I'd encourage anyone else who uses the internet or operates servers or anything to do the same.

8/pol/ at least used to attack NN because it helps monopolies and creates regulation that don't exist because they aren't needed and other objectively wrong shit.

don't smaller companies specifically support NN and say that it lowers the barrier of entry?
