FACT CHECK: Is Portugal an Example of What Happens Without Net Neutrality?No doubt
I live in the UK. Here’s hoping we don’t end up like America and Portugal.
What are you on about? How does the concept of NN constitute a 'monopoly'?Funny how the folks complaining about the monopoly status of the internet ... are the same ones who want to keep it a monopoly. That's just incredibly perverse logic. Free the internet!

I have three viable choices:
For those who may not know already, all major wireless providers will be offering ISP services within the next year or so as 5G begins to roll out.
Hello?Are you serious? This will screw up the internet completely. Not only will ISP's have a lot of power but now they can sell there services like Cable Companies.
Hello?
Did you not know that the FCC's so-called "net neutrality" regulations codified ISPs identically as cable companies. Title ii was the 1934 regulation which enabled both the Bell monopoly and the cable monopoly.
Why would anyone want to do that again and have the trifecta of monopolies?
Do you actually know what NN was designed to do?Hello?

I do. It seems you don't.
That’s the thing. In many areas there is only one provider so no completion to drive better service.
We found out it wasn't the corporations that were stopping them from coming, but some stupid agreement our local government signed.
There are other reasons for lack of competition. Prior to Net Neutrality? Those factors were present, and afterwards when the law was put in place? Nothing changed.
Net Neutrality means ISP's can screw us even harder.
Corporations makes deals with the government. It was both.
The government signed the franchise agreement to stop competition from coming in, and Net Neutrality did nothing to change that.
Again Net Neutrality is has nothing to do with "Franchise Agreements" it's about how they can't screw us even harder and throttle our internet as well as Capping our internet turning the internet into a even more harder Milking then ever before of our money.

What a blessed relief.FACT CHECK: Is Portugal an Example of What Happens Without Net Neutrality?
Portugal is a member of the EU, so they are bound by regulations and have to keep their net neutrality. So you guys should be allright.
Nothing changed because NN stopped it from changing.There are other reasons for lack of competition. Prior to Net Neutrality? Those factors were present, and afterwards when the law was put in place? Nothing changed.
You spoke of lack of competition Szechuan - that's why I mentioned the Franchise agreements.
Now you want to say it has nothing to do with it. Why bring it up then?
