Yay, spam email servers now have full speed. Spam away! You do realize prioritizing traffic is kind of the network norm right? NN was one of those, let's fix a problem that doesn't actually exist. You know that right?!?
The type of traffic shaping you are thinking off can still be done under net nutrailty and was never an issue.
The things NN is trying to "solve" was never an issue either
Net neutrality is the status quo, it's not trying to "solve" anything
If it was the status quo then why have rules?
To. Protect. It.
You really have no idea what you're talking about, do you?
Because companies like to make money by breaking the status quo when there aren't any rules.
It's the thing they like to do most honestly, and why we need to make rules when we see open loopholes
Then it shouldn't be an issue to implement it then right?
But there's never been an issue... Should Netflix pay more for their increased traffic... Yes, it's not equal to my browsing.
This is totally missing the point. What happened is the equivalent of the bus company calling the supermarket and saying "hey, I've noticed a lot of people going to your store. If you want to keep that, you've got to pay extra so I don't drop half the busses from your route"
They do.
Do you think Netflix connects to the internet for free?
I'm enjoying watching you dig this massive pit for yourself. Lol
