Ok... You guys don't like the idea of zealotic control of the net...
I can get that, but I figured you, of all net communities, would be able to see the problems by enforcing 'net neutrality'.
In short, say good bye to high speed connections. Why, you may ask? You are paying for a faster access of the net. Under net neutrality, anyone using a cable connection, DSL, dial up accelerated connection is screwed over because it isn't offered to everyone at the exact same price.
How many people realize that if net neutrality is enforced that the network of servers we use to enter and exit newgrounds may not be able to accomdate the number of people visiting everyday, becuase not every web site has that type of server.
The people writing this bill are intent on tying the hands of Tom, Wade and pratically anyone else with programming moxy to make a hair-brained scheme work. (i.e: The Portal) They do not care for future technologies being introduced or any new programs written. To be frank, the dumbasses in congress see the Internet as it is now, as the New Coke; it will be around forever.
The sad part is that this incarnation of the Internet will need to evolve into something more in the near future, technology demands such an action. Net neutrality gets in the way of this because it forces everyone to play with the same deflated kick ball.
Net Neurtality is just another term for fencing in start up companies from the market and putting an end to new connections speeds and multi media.
To put it simply: newgrounds wouldn't be here if net neutrality was enforced in 1996.
