ISP’s And BullShit

Well… it seems that the throttling/blocking or whatever has finally hit my area. I’ve noticed great difference in some speeds. What is it with these FCC people? And the other ones that are most likely involved with this stuff? Do they not realise that you could make more money if you’d quit throttling such things (or even blocking). Hell, people would see that the ISP is free to be, and come and use it for what it’s supposed to be used for.

Everything has gone to shit lately with Internet Companies. Even in the UK they have made it hell for customers in the last 2 years. Throttling them.. even some complain of slow HTTP connections. I’ve also seen it myself as well. I mean come on, we pay anywhere from $30 to $300 for decent and nowadays, we aren’t paying for the speed and reliability, we are paying for them to purchase throttling software and use it against us.

Edit Add-ON:

Again, in Aus they are being trampled by Internet prices. It’s so expensive to get a decent connection over in Aus, (even NZ) anymore. I’m not even mentioning the rest of the companies.

I know a guy that lives in Canada, and pays around 200$ (if not more and in Canada Money) for his satelite internet and he can’t even host a single thing. Not even a simple web server, or game server. And he’s constantly throttled if even tries.. so there’s no point in even doing it is there? What kind of service is that? “Lets charge you a lot, but you’ll still get your money worth. Use yahoo and msn a lot”

Nowadays, it seems to go back to dial up would be the best route. Broadband companies all over the world seem to be falling apart, because of harrasing laws around them. Torrent sites closed in the USA, can barely run them in the UK, a no no in Canada… You have to get the server over seas now just to run anything. P2P and Torrenting classed as “bad” and “you shouldn’t do that.” It’s getting scarey guys… next thing you know we’ll be surfing through tunnels trying to protect our passwords to emails. Oh wait, they can already access our email by any means.

What next?
