- debt 8y agoI believe the timing of this was intentional.
- ars 8y agoAnd what are you basing your belief on? And don't forget this is the entertainment time warner, not the internet service. So I'm curious what intentional timing you found, and how it relates to net neutrality.
- ajmurmann 8y agoOne of the biggest issues is when companies that should focus on shipping bits for their customers also have incentive to care about what the bits represent. So this being the entertainment Time Warner is what makes this bad. Got slow service with Netflix or worse a tiny player like Mubi? Why not watch magically super fast Time Warner content that doesn't count against your data cap either?
- ars 8y agoWrong Time Warner. This is the entertainment part, not the internet service.
