FCC Commissioner Warns of Destructive FCC Policies

bugsy writes "Discrimination, Closed Networks and the Future of Cyberspace... Just over a month ago, Karl Auerbach asked, Is the Internet Dying?. Today, Commissioner Michael J. Copps, of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in a speech at the New America Foundation, is asking the very same question, 'Is The Internet As We Know It Dying?' and warning about FCC policies that damaged media now threatening the Internet. Coincidence?! Here is CircleID's report on these Remarks by Michael J. Copps, Federal Communications Commissioner: The Beginning of The End of the Internet? Discrimination, Closed Networks, and the Future of Cyberspace."

    Then it must be true.

    After all, it's been years since I've seen BSD rear it's ugly head.

    NetCraft Confirms it: the Internet is dieing.

    Excellent.

I love my wife, love having sex with her, but fantasize about men. I don't want to turn my life upside down (hurt my wife, get divorced, lose my job(oops, everyone at work knows cause they are gay too, etc.) just to scratch this itch. But I also realize that to some degree I have not really lived who I am all these years. (My wife discovered I have these feelings a couple of years ago and we got through that crisis when I told her I did not act on them, which is not true.) Any advice?"

    Do you want good luck to follow you and your offspring for geneations to come? This troll has the solution for you...

    All you have to do is copy this troll onto two to four of the discussion threads of your choice! That's right! Just copy this into a new message and click "post anonymously." That's all there is to it! *

    Tired of that idiot talking about geek culture! Stick one of these babies on it! And it's good for the economy!

    Marge Gentry of Cambridge, Minnesota participated, and the next day she received a large fruit basket outside of her door from a secret admirer. Unfortunately, Marge was hit by a truck the next day, so she didn't get to the Granny Smith apples.

    Commander Taco of Hole-in-the-ground West Virginia didn't participate, and he was violated by a group of raging homosexuals. Since the gang was headed by Jon Katz, Taco had no recourse to the law because the entire town knew about their previous relationship. The unfortunate outcome is enshrined forever at goatse.cx.

    So if you want to get the fruit basket and not get poked in the bread basket, just copy this troll onto two of the discussions threads of your choice. We could have this place blanketed by sundown!

  10. MY BEST FRIEND IS A HO. by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Troll

    This has nothing to do with anything remotely Slashdot related, but I need to do something before my head explodes...

    As I type this, my roomate and my best friend/recent lover are fucking in the next room over. WHAT THE FUCK. After 10 years of friendship and built-up sexual tension, we finally hooked up and now less than a week later she's banging my roomate. I am so fucking incensed right now I can't think straight. I wouldn't mind if they went to a hotel or otherwise didn't make it known, but she just FUCKING WALKED PAST MY ROOM TOPLESS AND SHUT THE DOOR IN MY FUCKING FACE. How fucking insensitive can you be?!

    This sucks. It's 3AM and I'm telling strangers (GEEK strangers, no less) about my personal problems. I am a big pussy and will most likely not say anything to either one of them so I expect this to go on for a while. Fuck me!#!@

    Feeling low? There's someone else out there that's having a worse day than you. Trust me.
