Not the first time that backbone projects have whored out to government. Now that the FCC is ruler of the Internet, I assume the left will demand that the taxpayer fund massive upgrades to the backbone to handle the video streaming traffic, then claim it's all free...
So far, I've not run into a single leftist here who has even an inkling of how networks operate. You spew idiocy for purely partisan purpose. I suspect Blindfool does have some knowledge, but he ran away once the conversation became technical.
What about you, Verizon fios offers you a 35 meg synchronous connection, how fast is your upload speed expected to be?
- As fast as Walmart cuz that's the law
- 35 megabytes per second
- 4.375 megabytes per second
Why so slow? My down is 105Mbps, up is 50Mbps. My WiFi is 70 down, up is 50.
Every industrialized nation except the US, standard speed in 200Mbps down, 100 up.
Yeah, right, and you have a company that earns $100 million/yr, and I'm the queen of England.
Hate to break it to you but taxpayers paid 100% of the internet backbone. ISP's charge you for what you've already paid. Then they want to charge you for more usage (that they get for free) of what you've already paid using a local infrastructure that's already in place.
I've never yet received the theoretical maximum upload speed that I signed up for.
That's the nature of things.
Have you thought maybe that BlindBoo has other things to do...like sleep?
I've seen the quality of your debating skills.
Your default position is always to drive a discussion in a cartoon politically ideological direction.
You're completely predictable.
I have very little technical knowledge on how the internet works so I won't be drawn into a debate but your left vs right position weakens your credibility, and means that anything you say....no matter how technically well-informed...is read in the knowledge that it has first been run through your political filter so that it will never contradict your ideological ground.
The trouble with this, of course, is that you can get yourself tied up in knots trying to match the real world with your ideological fantasy one.
Oh well.
And how does this relate to "censorship" then? When has FCC censored anything?
Dunno, why don't you send a letter to Janet Jackson over nipple exposure. Make sure to send it priority overnight for faster service - brite boi...
So you believed Algore when claimed he created the internet?
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Did you really see her nipple or was there a pasty covering it?
Whether Algore wrote it or not, it still isn't what you can he claim it to be. It didn't create the internet. Thousands of businesses created the internet. they borrowed some technology from ARPANET, but that constitutes about 0.00001% of the internet.
It also didn't lay even one inch of fiber backbone.
If the FCC's power grab to regulate the internet as a public utility is allowed to stand, you would have to be among the most retarded of the retards to believe the FCC will not ultimately start regulating prices. You would also have to be incredibly gullible to not see the final outcome of the internet-as-public-utility to be the same as it has been for every other designated public utility. That is to say, government-sanctioned monopolies. You will one day have only one choice of internet provider where you live after the government is allowed to take over the internet.
All the other crap about censorship and whatever other nonsense has found its way onto these 56-odd pages aside, these things you can absolutely depend upon. Price fixing and government-sanctioned monopolies.
"Net neutrality" is the Trojan Horse used as the vehicle for this invasion.
It also didn't lay even one inch of fiber backbone.
Fiber was laid for telephone lines. Internet was added bonus.

which means the government still doesn't deserve any credit.
In other words, you can't produce the slightest bit of evidence that it was subsidized.
Thanks for playing!
So you believed Algore when claimed he created the internet?
As much as I believed Mrs. Palin claimed she could see Russia from her back yard.
She never made such a claim, dumbass. That was Tina Fey on Saturday night live.

Derp-a-Derp?
Neither did Gore make the claim he created the internet.
In other words, you can't produce the slightest bit of evidence that it was subsidized.

Every telecommunications company in this country is highly subsidized including mine, and I build the infrastructure. In 2014, it was $45M.

After this interview, Gore became the subject of controversy and ridicule when his statement "I took the initiative in creating the Internet"[53] was widely quoted out of context. It was often misquoted by comedians and figures in American popular media who framed this statement as a claim that Gore believed he had personally invented the Internet.[54] Gore's actual words, however, were widely reaffirmed by notable Internet pioneers, such as Vint Cerf and Bob Kahn, who stated, "No one in public life has been more intellectually engaged in helping to create the climate for a thriving Internet than the Vice President."[55]

Or at least you're more than willing to lie...
{During my service in the United States Congress, I took the initiative in creating the Internet."}
Al Gore claimed responsibility for creation of the Internet-Truth
