Netflix blasts Comcast and Verizon on net neutrality

Poohy14

 

"BIG ISPS ARE WILLING TO SACRIFICE THE INTERESTS OF THEIR OWN CUSTOMERS."

 

Netflix warned in January after the FCC's net neutrality rules were struck down that it would vocally resist the actions of ISPs if it were forced to pay them to avoid service degradation. While the company already caved in paying Comcast, it appears to now be fulfilling its warning. "Were this draconian scenario to unfold with some ISP," Netflix wrote in January, "we would vigorously protest and encourage our members to demand the open internet they are paying their ISP to deliver."

 

Do you think the ISPs just want your money and just trying to control the internet on who can use it and how much bandwidth they should have?? Also, what is your opinions on Net Neutrality?? Just give your opinions in the comments I really want to see what everyone thinks of this.

Net neutrality is a must. These isp's will just abuse their power so they can make as much money as possible. We need services like Google fiber, not these giant corporations who are stuck in the past.

ISPs are way to greedy for their own good.  I'm ready for Google fiber.  :)

San Antonio is half an hour away from me... I am SO FREAKING READY.

Yup. They already gave in. That is like people complaining about EA games, then continuing to buy them and then buying the DLC and then buying the next EA game. LOL.
