BitTorrent's Bram Cohen against Network Neutrality
wigwamus writes "BitTorrent inventor Bram Cohen warns on potential 'absurdity' of Network Neutrality laws and concedes that his hook-up with Cachelogic is creating a system that might contravene Network Neutrality. He suggests there'd be no difference between big media footing the bill for their own upload costs of their offerings and subsidizing the consumer's download costs of the same."
Last time I heard from this guy, he was begging for loose change in a fucking popup window. Therefore his opinion on anything other begging for money while looking like a greasy nerd is irrelevant.
I thought all of your type died in Nuremberg.
Please, for the good of Humanity, vote Obama.
Just a comment about child labor which I haven't seen mentioned: the mortality rate for children under 10 years of age was something like 70% before the industrial revolution. Most of these children starved to death.
In school we're taught about the evil capitalists who forced children to work in such abhorable conditions, but the fact that these children would otherwise have starved is ignored. As a direct result of the jobs created by evil capitalist factory owners, these children lived. You might say that such a awful existence is not worth the trouble, but all the children who refused to lay down and die in the face of this option obviously disagree.
