Hmm...
how long would it take for Sep7agon to load up if net neutrality is gone?

I would be surprised if it still exists. ISP would blacklist this site if Cheat himself doesn't censor it.

You know what would be nice? If the website was actually privatized where it wouldn't be google indexed. Do we really need guests to read our posts?

This site has such a small footprint that I doubt it would make a significant difference, broski. The fall of net neutrality is probably only going to significantly affect streaming services and web apps unless ISPs really do go full ham and block off all parts of the internet except for a few (which I can see them doing by offering cheap "netflix and facebook only" plans or something so they can jack the price of regular internet access up.

Don't have a fit, is all I'm saying. It's probably going to be fine. :)

Okay then let me ask you this. If its going to be all fine, why does Newgrounds have a warning pop up on this urging its users to call their local congressmen?

This means it can affect websites too. That includes Sep7agon.

I know this place isn't big like NG but it still counts. We're not a private website. If all of our posts are google indexed and the site is visible to guests, we're pretty much public.

I live in a country without codified net neutrality laws and the internet is the same as in the states. I'm interested to see what restrictions ISPs would place on VPNs though. With broadband access becoming increasingly less expensive for ISPs to provide, even at high speeds and bandwidth usage, there doesn't seem to be much of a reason to implement these hypothetical plans except as an attempt to eek out a bit more profit from customers, but at a huge risk given the public attitude towards exclusive plans.

I meant it was probably going to be fine for this site. Any large site, especially one that is software as a service, is going to feel the pain.

Why exactly do you think this will affect sep7agon? I really cannot see how it would, yet you're talking about it with almost certainty.

It could very much effect Simple Machines. They host us.

One, Japan has long had a much more competitive ISP market than the US, although it's recently been dwindling and formal net neutrality rules are being proposed.
Most people just go with one of a few mobile carriers for their internet access, even at home. It's a lot like the non-competitive market in the states. I'm not convinced that ending or changing the current laws will plunge the U.S. into a dark age of internet (nor did it prior to 2015). I do support net neutrality.
Quote
I also think that the public attitude is probably overstated. When I brought up the issue with my girlfriend's family two weeks ago in the US, none of them had heard about it before. When I explained what might happen, they didn't think that the tiered / laned internet sounded that bad and would shrug at it becoming like a cable box service. The online minority just shouts very loudly while I'm willing to bet a very large chunk of the population doesn't care and wouldn't be too bothered by these practices.
We're kind of talking about two different ramifications, although some might claim they go hand in hand. One is that the internet is divided into tiered service bundles allowing you to add or remove certain high-bandwidth services like streaming video or gaming, and the other is the the potential for competitors to impose restrictions on each other, influence political content, etc. The latter is what really concerns me, whereas the former just seems like an extension of the current subscription plans various services already impose. I think most people like your girlfriend's family see the removal of NN as the chance that Cox might let them pay less since they don't play internet games or stream Netflix, when in could mean much more.

The time to act to stop this shit is now. We should start signing petitions and having an uproar. This isn't the first time we've had to deal with this bullshit, and it sure as hell won't be the last. There will be more bullshit acts like SOPA and PIPA trying to crop up, but we need to fight all of them, because these idiots don't understand how the internet works. Its not a fucking landline you rich old white fuckers, so many businesses even rely on an open and free internet. You do that and you're killing jobs.


Let me say this now, I actually regret voting for Trump. I really do, but I sure as fuck wasn't going to vote for Hillary. Even if I didn't vote for him he still would have won and I would have felt better about myself for not getting involved, instead I'm fucking kicking myself for it.

So the only way to stop making another fucking mistake is to not get involved in my case. I'm done with the game of politics and I want my internet to remain open and free so fucking cucks like Trump won't touch it.

Sign below the dotted line of this post if you agree that we need to save Net Neutrality and stop this bullshit from happening once again.

If Trump is undoing everything Obama did that can't be a bad thing.

You do know that if Net Neutrality dies for good this website goes under with it right?

This is why I'm against it.

Are you fucking retarded?

Yeah, it's pretty bad news. Happy to be far away from the US for stuff like this, or I'd be salty about it too. Good luck over there, I hope it doesn't make it.
only, remember that most of the top websites on the internet (as well as its infrastructure) are still based in the US

so this actually affects the entire world

job well done

If you look at what Trump has done he has been great. Dare I say the best president in 100 years.

Also, don't forget that this is now headed for the courts. The real battle for the American open internet is really only just beginning.

Exactly, not over by a long shot.

People need to relax.

Excuse me, I'm full of dog poison
So did we give trumpf a chance yet? Is that satisfactory? Do you guys feel safe and comfortable now the "stress" of the election is over? Does all this shit that's happened since he won feel like "back to normal" for you? Democracy really is a fucking joke. Letting a bunch of barely cognizant monkeys decide which piece of shit gets to fuck us in the ass.

Two party systems never work. We need more variety in our ass rape.

The bad thing about multi party system is that you have to make compromises all the time.

Possibly never but it's the biggest reason there will never be a holocaust in America.
