Just a guy who peaked at building back in the days of the GTX 980. If you see me here, assume i have technical knowledge akin to a committed hobbyist builder back then. If something's changed, you'll need to tell me(nicely plz). I'm probably asking for help with the modern build scene since I have no clue what's going on.

The debate is about whether or not the U,S. government (the FCC) is overreaching it's power, by reclassifying the the internet as a public utility.

 

One camp says that government interferance will slow down inovation and investment, and thereby it will lead to slower internet over time.

The other camp is saying that the internet is no crucial to modern life, that it can't be left in the hands of coporations.
