- dopamean 9y agoIt seems the fight has already been lost.
- orthecreedence 9y agoI'm going to sound like a broken record in these comments, but the most permanent way to save Net Neutrality is if the public owns the infrastructure, not the telecoms. We need grassroots municipal fiber campaigns across the country until Comcast et al are forced to compete with local ISPs on public infrastructure. Then Net Neutrality won't be an issue anymore: the market actually will solve it. No need to regulate. You'll have 20 local ISPs to choose from, and chances are they will all support Net Neutrality because it'd be suicide not to. This isn't an issue in places with real market competition. The best path to that is publicly-owned infrastructure.
