Millions of people wrote in requesting action on this, as did almost every single tech company that depends on the internet.

How the eff is that a dictatorship?

Well, 1st, because what you said us a blatant lie. "Most companies" did not ask for this. Neither did the citezenry.
2nd, the architect of these rules is a george soros funded socialist with the expressed goal of killing capitamism and speech that promotes it. So there ya go.

>>"Most companies" did not ask for this.

Many internet companies actually do support this. Google and Netflix come to mind.

>>Neither did the citezenry.

Actually, over 4 million people chimed in with comments to support this during the FCC's open internet proceedings.

>>2nd, the architect of these rules is a george soros funded socialist with the expressed goal of killing capitamism and speech that promotes it.

Care to back that up with any facts? Although I agree with him here, I typically have little trust for Wheeler. But I'd like to see some proof that anything he does is funded by George Soros. I'm also curious what you think from Wheeler's past is either opposed to capitalism or speech about capitalism.

Yes. I'm sure those companies DO "come to mind". Especially considering that those two companies were opposed to "net neutrality" up until LATE 2014 when they suddenly switched positions. Even Google was opposed until Tom Wheeler agreed to some "tweeks" literally one day before the vote. Sounds like those "evil corporations" you cry about actually made some back room deals with the government. I'm sure you only oppose those crony deals when they are not opposed to your socialist ideals.

THIS article shows that Google has been historically in favor of net neutrality and only became silent due to political backlash, mostly from republicans.

THIS article shows that Netflix supported net neutrality at least as far back as February of 2014. Care to produce something that indicates Netflix was EVER opposed to net neutrality?

Am I supposed to be impressed that a "conservative" used a liberal newspaper to bolster his own socialistic opinion?
Im not.
Im not impressed with your so called intellect, your debate tactics, or your constant need to force your opinion on others.
And I see that you completely ignored the article I posted and instead decided to use ad hominem attacks.

It is okay though. I reposted it and several others for you in another post. Take you meds and have a good read.

That argument is ad hominem and genetic fallacy. Try debating the facts about dates listed in the articles if you can.

>>Im not impressed with your so called intellect, your debate tactics, or your constant need to force your opinion on others.

THAT is adhominem.

And this in the very post where you "completely ignored the article[s] I posted and instead decided to use ad hominem attacks". You should really stop accusing me of what you do. It's old and tired.

The only conspiracy theory is the one where you and your liberal cronies are spreading the lie that internet companies are a problem and that there is a problem that needs to be fixed. There isn't a problem. Never was. Your so called evidence is a joke and always will be. Have a great day, Batman.

See, THAT is an ad hominem attack. You do this over and over again, and then have the gall to complain when I hit you with one out of exasperation.

>>that internet companies are a problem and that there is a problem that needs to be fixed. There isn't a problem. Never was.

The sad fact is that there really is a problem. You have had a plenty of time to research and understand this issue if it really mattered to you. But you have never taken the time to understand why the overwhelming majority of technologists endorse net neutrality. At this point I can only conclude that you are more interested in being right than in actually understand...

1. Nope, it's a fact. Look it up. Do you know how to use GOOGLE? one of the companies that was FOR NET NEUTRALITY?

2. The opposition was clearly the Koch industries backed SUPERPACS and their supporters at telecom, who are far more evil and want to control the information to push lies to brainwashed people like you.

Next time, check your facts.
